AGENDA:

Have you signed up for co-teaching? Objectives: (1) Correctly describe the basic composition and essential function of all enzymes with no major factual errors; (2) Simulate the function of an enzyme under various conditions and graph the results with no major errors

Warm-up: Enzymes are protein catalysts that increase the rate of a chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy for the reaction. How, physically, do they accomplish this? [5]

Review enzymes notes [10]

Laboratory experiment: Environmental Factors Affecting Peroxidase Enzyme Function—make sure you have had your procedure reviewed and approved by the instructor before beginning, then assemble your materials and proceed! [75]

Toothpickase Enzyme Simulation activity write-up due today


OUTSIDE OF CLASS:

Work on Peroxidase Enzyme lab

Work on your Ecology Service Learning Project
