Enzyme - • Organic catalyst • speeds up reactions • proteins • lower activation energy Ea • can be reused over and over
COENZYME - • 1/2 enzyme • 1/2 vitamin • enhance the effect of an enzyme
COOPERATIVE GROUP ROLES: • Recorder - writes down data • Grabber - gets the beads • Polymer maker - adds the beads to the growing chain
TRIAL 1 - baseline • Pick up your specific bead color and run it back to your desk to be added to the growing polymer chain • timing is done every 10 seconds
TRIAL 2 - Coenzyme • Same as the control but the grabber can throw the bead back to the polymer maker
TRIAL 3 - Denaturation • Same as the baseline but you must tape together your fingers • that means NO THROWING back to the polymer maker!!!!
TRIAL 4: Competitive Inhibition • same as the baseline but you must bounce the ping pong ball catch it then get your bead
Processing the Data • Set up a graph of all of the data with the number of beads on the Y axis, Time (10 sec increments) on the X axis, a key for all 4 trials and the title being: • Figure 1: Effects on Enzyme Action
Analysis Questions • Refer to the packet for the questions. • To complete the lab: • Fill in data • Make the graph • Answer the questions
