S.M. Part 1
An educated guess.
Hypothesis
Enzymes are this kind of bio molecule.
Proteins
The brain of the cell.
Nucleus
This 3 letter named molecule is the cells source of energy.
ATP
Getting information using your 5 senses.
Observation.
This is what enzymes are, this means that they make reactions faster and stronger
Catalyst
Catalyze
The "skin" of the cell.
The Cell Membrane
These compounds ALWAYS have a Carbon (C) and Hydrogen (H).
Organic Compounds
Organic
Making a guess based on observations collected.
Inference
This is an over the counter medication that inhibits an enzyme that plays an important role in the starting of the pathway to inflammation and pain.
Aspirin
Roses are red
Violets are swell
THIS is the powerhouse of the cell.
DAILY DOUBLE!
Mitochondria
Starch is made up of this sugar.
Glucose
The Bio in Biology means this.
DAILY DOUBLE!
Life
The following is an example of an enzyme process:
When you arrive at work in the morning, and you are unable to park your car in your (assigned) parking spot because the person who parks next to you has taken up just enough space that you cannot fit your own car in.
DAILY DOUBLE
Non-Competitive Inhibition
Proteins are made in this little organelle that is frequently found bound to the ER.
Ribosomes
Ribosome
DNA, RNA, and ATP are made up of these building blocks.
Nucleic Acids
What we used to find what was in the aluminum cylindar during our "Mystery Boxes" activity in the second week of school.
Observations
A regulatory process in which a regulatory molecule binds an Enzyme in a spot OTHER THAN the active site to inhibit Enzyme activity.
Allosteric Regulation
This organelle is responsible for transporting things around the cell in the same way that a "conveyor belt" in a supermarket moves grocery items closer to the cashier to scan.
E.R.
Endoplasmic ReticulumExamples of this organic molecule include, oils and fats like olive oil and lard.
