3. Good Times With Enzymes A Dr.Production www.africangreyparrott.com Sung to the tune “Goodtimes” by Chic

4. Enzymes, These are the enzymes Leave substrates behind These are the enzymes

5. Enzymes, Reduce reaction time Leave substrates behind These are the enzymes

6. Enzymes are proteins usually ending in “ase” They change but are not changed, the definition of a catalase

7. Combine with substrates to break them apart Their specific activation site makes sure they hit the mark

8. If there’s a reaction that you want to go Without an enzyme it reacts too slow

9. Enzymes lower activation energy And once that’s lowered, you’re home free (home free)

10. Enzymes, These are the enzymes Leave substrates behind These are the enzymes

11. Enzymes, Reduce Reaction Time Leave substrates behind These are the enzymes

12. Amino acids are the monomers of a polypeptide - a protein polymer

13. Enzyme and substrate fit neatly in place They got the “Lock & Key” to win the reaction race

14. They require a specific temperature And if it’s not exact they can be denatured

15. A proper pH is necessary If your acids and bases are just right, you’re home free (home free)

16. Enzymes, These are the enzymes Catalyze & metabolize These are the enzymes

17. Enzymes, Reduce reaction time Leave substrates behind These are the enzymes

22. 5. Which chemical is classified as an enzyme? A. galactose B. lipid C. protease D. manganese dioxide

23. 6. Which statement best describes the enzyme represented in the graphs below? A. This enzyme works best at a temp. of 35 C and a pH of 8. B. This enzyme works best at a temp. of 50 C and a pH of 12. C. Temp. and pH have no influence on the activity of this enzyme. D. This enzyme works best at a temp. above 50 C and a pH above 12

24. Have you ever known someone to get ill? If eating ice cream or milk or cheese they’d have to take a pill

25. That’s cause they didn’t have the protein lactase. The enzyme that digests lactose and puts it in it’s place

26. Have you ever wondered how your clothes get clean? With a little detergent in a washing machine

27. There are some enzymes that will break down the grime In all those awful stains that give you a real hard time.

28. Enzymes Lactase, catalase, protease, Amylase, lipase, pectinase, Cellulase, maltase, DNAse

29. Enzymes, These are the enzymes Leave substrates behind These are the enzymes
