Answer- fungus could grow on swamp at ph 4 as in amylase(malt) is active at ph 4.6-5.
Imagine that the amylase enzymes used in this experiment were isolated from a fungus. The fungus...
pH Effects on Enzyme Activity Another environmental factor regulates enzyme activity is pH (the level of acidity or alkalinity of a solution). As you may recall, the pH scale extends from 0 (very acidic) to 7 (neutral) to 14 (very alkaline or basic). We can use chemicals called buffers to help maintain a specific pH in solution. The pH scale and buffers are described in your online text (section 2.2, https://openstax.org/books/concepts- biology/pages/2-2-water). The spot plate diagram below shows a series...
10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
