Lab 2 Saliva Graph

The document shows the time required for salivary amylase to partially hydrolyze starch at different temperatures, ranging from 0 to 200 degrees Celsius. Salivary amylase works fastest at around 37 degrees Celsius, requiring only 5 minutes to partially hydrolyze starch, while requiring more time at lower and higher temperatures.
