Below are guided notes that follow along with my website. I recommend that you handwrite your notes, if possible. Studies show that better learning connections are made that way. If you struggle with hand written notes, you are welcome to print, complete, and glue the notes below into your science notebook.

BIO.2 The student will investigate and understand that chemical and biochemical processes are essential for life. Key ideas include
water chemistry has an influence on life processes;
macromolecules have roles in maintaining life processes;
enzymes have a role in biochemical processes;
protein synthesis is the process of forming proteins which influences inheritance and evolution; and
the processes of photosynthesis and respiration include the capture, storage, transformation, and flow of energy.
The structure of enzymes moderates their function in chemical reactions in living things. Enzymes are a group of proteins that function to moderate the rate of metabolic reaction by acting as catalysts (BIO.2 c).
In order to meet this standard, it is expected that students will
describe the structure of enzymes and explain their role in acting as catalysts to control the rate of metabolic reactions (BIO.2 c)
plan and conduct an investigation to determine the effect of an enzyme on a biochemical reaction and apply biological principles and evidence to explain the results (BIO.2 c)
