A Big Butt Is A Healthy Butt: Women With Big Butts Are Smarter And Healthier Scientists from the University of Oxford have discovered that women with larger than average butts are not only increasingly intelligent but also very resistant to chronic illnesses. According to ABC News, the results found that women with bigger backsides tend to have lower levels of cholesterol and are more likely to produce hormones to metabolize sugar. Therefore, women with big butts are less likely to have diabetes or heart problems. And having a big butt requires an excess of Omega 3 fats, which have been proven to catalyze brain development. The researchers also found that the children born to women with wider hips are intellectually superior to the children of slimmer, less curvy mothers.

Standard SB1b. Explain how enzymes function as catalysts.

Objectives I can describe how molecules interact in a chemical reaction. I can describe how a catalyst interacts with reactants in a chemical reaction. I can use controlled experiments to measure the effect of four variables on a chemical reaction: temperature, concentration, surface area, and catalysts. I can explain why increasing temperature, reactant concentrations, surface area, and the numbers of catalyst molecules raise the rates of chemical reactions.

Notes 2.3: Enzymes and Catalysts

2H + O ➝ H2O Chemical Reactions Change one substance to another by breaking and forming bonds 2H + O ➝ H2O Reactants = Substrates: come BEFORE the arrow Products: come AFTER the arrow

Catalysts Catalysts speed up reactions by lowering the activation energy Basically they make it easier to get to the intermediate, so the reaction happens faster Biological catalysts are called enzymes

EA = Activation Energy= Energy to get to the intermediate Determines the speed of the reaction

EA is lowered by the enzyme Red line: Rx catalyzed by enzyme

Analogy (Notes) Which would you prefer? Bigger or shorter hill? Hill Height= Activation Energy Required A= Reactants B= Products

Enzymes (Think & Share) Which type of organic molecule are enzymes considered? What do enzymes do?

Enzyme Factors (Notes) Enzymes are affected by… 1) Temperature 2) pH 3) Concentration 4) Surface area HIGH Temperature and LOW pH (ACIDS) DENATURE enzymes

Factors which affect the speed of a reaction Surface area – the measure of the amount of exposed area an object has Concentration – a measure of how much of a given substance is mixed with another substance Half life - the time required for one half of the reactant molecules to react.

Which type of water will cause the sugar to dissolve more quickly? ___________________ Suppose you held a lighted match to a solid hunk of wood and another match to a pile of wood shavings. Which form of wood will catch fire more easily? ______________________ The teacher will model how to perform technical task during the lab to enhance student lab reports. She will also model how to complete the initial section of the lab.

Guided Practice A chemical reaction causes the chemical compositions of substances to change. Reactants are substances that enter into a reaction, and products are substances produced by the reaction. The Collision Theory Gizmo™ allows you to experiment with several factors that affect the rate at which reactants are transformed into products in a chemical reaction. The teacher will work through the Gizmo Warm Up with students so that they know how to manipulate the Gizmo tools.

Guided Practice You will need blue, green, and orange markers or colored pencils for the first part of this activity.   Look at the key at the bottom of the SIMULATION pane. In the space below, draw the two reactants and two products of this chemical reaction. Reactants: Products:
