How does the temperature affect enzyme function? use evidence from your data to support your answer?

An increase in temperature will increase the reaction rate of enzymes. For instance, a 10 degree celsius rise in temperature will increase the activity of most enzymes by 50% to 100%. But too high temperature negatively affect enzymes and their functioning.

If the temperature is too high, it can alter the structure of the enzyme and make it unable to bind to the substrate. But, if the temperature is too low the chance for the enzyme to collide with the substrate will be lower too. The enzyme works best in the highest temperature before its structure changed.

The data from the experiment should look like a bell. There is an optimal temperature for the enzyme and increasing/decreasing from that temperature will result in reduced reaction speed.
