1. Lab Report Improvements
Enzyme Reaction Rate:
CATALASE and HYDROGEN PEROXIDE

2. MacromoleculesProtein studied here
An enzyme is a TYPE of protein
An enzyme speeds up chemical reactions: name for that? A Catalyst
Catalase= the SPECIFIC enzyme we studied
Catalyst is not the same as Catalase
Yeast is NOT an Enzyme, Human is Not an Enzyme (Yeast is an Organism)

3. Improvements Needed Title: Should be specific to your experiment
Poor Example: Enzyme Reactivity
Wonderful Example: Catalase Reaction Rate with Substrate Hydrogen Peroxide

4. Hypothesis HYPOTHESIS in terms of the CLASS experiment:
If we test a range of temperatures, then the most optimal for a high reaction rate will be…
We are NOT “feeding” Yeast  that was the cellular respiration lab
We are combining an enzyme (Catalase) with the substrate (hydrogen peroxide) at the active site
measuring the rate of reaction at different temperatures

5. Data
Scatterplot
Data points NOT connected
Trend line?

6. What are the scientific principles?
Not just definition
Enzyme: What was it in our experiment? Substrate: What was it?
Describe all terms in relation to OUR experiment did not test pH
