Part 2: Effect of temperature on Enzyme Activity Background Information: Each enzyme has an optimum temperature at which it works best. A higher temperature generally results in an increase in enzyme activity. As the temperature increases, molecular motion increases resulting in more molecular collisions. If, however, the temperature rises above a certain point, the heat will denature the enzyme, causing it to lose its three-dimensional functional shape by denaturing its hydrogen bonds. Cold temperature, on the other hand, slows down enzyme activity by decreasing molecular motion. In this experiment, you will explore this effect on the catalase extracted from a potato.

Which of the following are therapeutic options for controlling mucus hypersecretion, other than using mucoactive agents? I. Remove causative factors, such as pollution, where possible II. Treat infections III. Optimize tracheobronchial clearance, including the use of bronchodilators IV. Incorporate bronchial hygiene measures, such as cough and postural drainage
