3The graph below shows rate of reaction data for 2 different enzymes. One of these enzymes are
found in the stomach, the other is found in the mouth
Rate of reaction
pH
Which of these lines is more likely to indicate the enzyme found in the stomach? Explain your answer.
The protease enzyme pepsin is found in the stomach and has a highly acidic PH of just 2, so the line would be at PH 2, so lower down than amylase which has a PH 7 :)
