Biology students modeled chemical reactions involving enzymes and factors! Their hands represented the enzyme, pennies represented the substrate, and the reaction was represented by moving as many pennies as possible one at a time from the floor to the table in 10 second intervals. Their hands were wrapped to demonstrate how a chemical reaction would slow down if an enzyme is denatured or a competitive inhibitor is present.





Happy December HHS! ❄️🎄
