1. The different reaction rates between the potato and chicken liver indicate that one of the substances contain more catalase than the other. The reaction rate between the chicken liver and the hydrogen peroxide was quite fast as opposed to the potato and hydrogen peroxide which was at a slow to a moderate rate. This is most likely due to the fact that cellular respiration occurs more often in animals than plants, meaning that they would have a higher ammount of catalase.
2. Test tube 5 had a greater reaction rate than test tube 4.
In test tube 4, there was a higher concentration of catalase (enzymes) than hydrogen peroxide (substrates). Even though the concentration of enzymes increased, the reaction rate was little to none. Because the
