Summary Introduction

To determine: The way in which Rh incompatibility is involved in the hemolytic disease of a newborn.

Introduction: There are two types of Rh blood groups: Rh+ (have Rh antigen) and Rh- (do not have Rh antigen). Rh factor is a point of concern when the mother has Rh- and the fetus has Rh+ blood group. This condition can cause hemolytic disease of a newborn.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The Rh genotype of the mother in case of Rh incompatibility.

Awnser these Discussion Questions Answer these discussion questions and submit them as part of your lab report. Part A: The Effect of Temperature on Enzyme Activity Graph the volume of oxygen produced against the temperature of the solution. How is the oxygen production in 30 seconds related to the rate of the reaction? At what temperature is the rate of reaction the highest? Lowest? Explain. Why might the enzyme activity decrease at very high temperatures? Why might a high fever be dangerous to humans? What is the optimal temperature for enzymes in the human body? Part B: The Effect of pH on Enzyme Activity Graph the volume of oxygen produced against the pH of the solution. At what pH is the rate of reaction the highest? Lowest? Explain. Why does changing the pH affect the enzyme activity? Research the enzyme catalase. What is its function in the human body? What is the optimal pH for the following enzymes found in the human body? Explain. (catalase, lipase (in your stomach),…
