Answer:

A. temperature of the reaction

B. amount of enzyme

E.  pH of the reaction

Explanation:  

To test various theories, experiments are typically conducted under a number of different conditions. Several variables must be established when planning studies to ensure reproducibility, precision, and validity of findings.

For example, while controls are held constant, different independent variables are strictly altered and analyzed - this ensures validity and may show whether external factors affected the experiment.

In this experiment, the rate of the reaction is the dependent variable. Thus all factors that may influence the final result, such as the temperature, pH, and enzyme concentration should be kept constant.

These factors can increase the reaction rate by altering the configuration of the enzymes, providing more collision energy, and increasing the collisions between and ratio of reactants. Increasing the concentration is expected to increase the frequency of collisions between reactants and thus speed up the rate.

The three variables that should be kept constant in the setup of the student's investigation:

  1. temperature of the reaction
  2. pH of the reaction
  3. amount of enzyme

CONSTANT VARIABLE:

  • In an experiment, a constant variable is that variable that must be kept constant or unchanged in order not to affect the outcome of the experiment.

  • Constant variable is also called control variable. In this experiment, a student is investigating how substrate concentration affects the rate of an enzyme catalyzed reaction.

  • The constant variable i.e. the variable that the student should keep constant are as follows:
  1. temperature of the reaction
  2. pH of the reaction
  3. amount of enzyme

  • Keeping these variables above constant means not allowing temperature, pH or amount of the enzyme interfere with the experimental outcome.
