1. Starter 1.All of the chemical reactions that take place in an organism are referred to as m_______. 2.Is this a physical or chemical reaction? How do you know? 3. Is this a physical or chemical reaction? How do you know?

2. #1 - Enzymes are which of the following molecules? A.Carbohydrates B.Lipids C.Proteins D.Nucleic Acids

3. #2 - Enzymes influence chemical reactions in living systems by A.providing the substrate required for the reaction to occur B.affecting the rate at which reactions occur C.absorbing water released when polymers are formed D.combining with excess hydrogen to form gaseous wastes

4. Enzyme Animation Why can an enzyme be reused? They are not changed or used up after a reaction!

5. Q #5 - Which answer do you most agree with? Why? A.There was no reaction between the liver and the vinegar because vinegar isn’t an enzyme. B.There was no reaction because vinegar cannot be broken down. C.There was no reaction because vinegar doesn’t break an enzyme down. D.There was no reaction because the enzymes in liver do not work to break down vinegar.

6. Enzymes work on a specific substrate! What makes them specific?

7. Do they look the same? Hydrogen peroxideVinegar

8. http://highered.mcgraw- hill.com/sites/0072495855/student_view0/chapter2/animation__how_enzy mes_work.html Lock and Key Hypothesis http://www.northland.cc.mn.us/biology/ Biology1111/animations/enzyme.html Enzyme and substrate fit together perfectly, like a lock and key!

9. WHAT KINDS OF THINGS MIGHT IMPACT HOW WELL AN ENZYME WORKS?

10. Enzymes are Proteins… http://www.sumanasinc.com/webcontent/ani mations/content/proteinstructure.html http://www.sumanasinc.com/webcontent/ani mations/content/proteinstructure.html

11. DENATURING AN ENZYME… HEAT CHANGE IN pH result in…

12. DENATURING… http://www.lew- port.com/10712041113402793/lib/10712041113402793/Animations/Enzyme_activity.html Changes the shape! How? -too much heat -adding acid or base to change PH

13. How does a catalyst work? Activation energy = energy needed to start a chemical reaction What do enzymes do to activation energy? A + B  AB

14. #3 – What do enzymes do to activation energy? A.Increase it B.Decrease it C.Keep it the same

15. #4 – So, which do you think would happen faster? A.Red line, because it requires more energy to get started. B.Red line, because it requires less energy to get started. C.Blue line, because it requires more energy to get started. D.Blue line, because it requires less energy to get started.

16. Enzymes increase the rate of a reaction! They work by lowering the activation energy needed to start the reaction!

17. Q #6 – If an enzyme is like a lock, what would represent the active site? A.The key, because it fits the lock B.The combination, because it is used to open the lock. C.The key hole, because that’s where the key fits. D.The lock itself, since it’s the enzyme.

19. Q #7 – An enzyme that breaks down protein will not act upon starch. This fact is an indication that enzymes are A.proteins B.specific C.catalysts D.synthetic

20. WHAT ELSE????? THINK ABOUT THE PAPERASE LAB!

21. Q #8 – At high temperatures, the rate of enzyme action decreases because the increased heat A.changes the pH of the system B.alters the active site of the enzyme C.neutralizes the acids and bases in the system D.increases the amount of the enzyme

22. Q #9 – Which environmental condition would most likely have the LEAST effect on the rate of an enzyme reaction? A.the pH of the solution B.the temperature of the solution C.the amount of enzyme present D.the amount of light present

23. THE REACTIONS WITHIN CELLS GENERALLY INVOLVE THE BUILDING OR THE BREAKDOWN OF COMPLEX COMPOUNDS. Synthesis and Decomposition

24. Anabolic reactions Build compounds. (SYNTHESIS) Energy is stored during these reactions.

25. Catabolic reactions Break down compounds. (DECOMPOSITION) Energy is released during these reactions.
