Introduction to Enzymes

Today we started with the following Daily questions

Monday October 1st
What kind of organic molecule are enzymes?
 Proteins
Because they are this specific type of organic molecule, what would you infer determines their function?  Their function is determined by their shape and how the amino acids are folded on top of each other.

What do they aid in?  Biochemical reactions

After these we moved into notes about enzymes. Please see Edline for the notes.  Two KEY things I want you to know about enzymes is their ROLE in biochemical reactions and what factors influence their activity! (See Keystone assessment anchors above)




We will do a lab tomorrow that looks at two of these factors!
