Enzyme Lab

An enzyme is something that speeds up a chemical reaction. When we did the activity in class, we first had the enzymes reacting normally. When the inhibitors (things that are added to slow reaction down) were added, the process did slow down because they looked exactly like the enzymes. Then the enzymes don't work the way they are suppose to. They are controlled by temperature as well as the PH level. When the enzymes didn't know which one to choose, the rate of capturing slowed down. The activity is how we showed the relation.
