    Enzymes are biological molecules (proteins) that act as catalysts and help complex reactions occur everywhere in life. Enzymes are catalyst for biochemical reactions; Enzymes lower the activation ATP so a reaction can begin over the energy barriers. In this lab‚ a discussion of the enzymes reaction to heat will be addressed. Does heat speed up the enzyme reaction? The prediction is as more heat is applied more reactions will occur then at some point the heat will denature the enzyme as it reaches

    The affect of temperature on the rate of movement of woodlice Aim: The aim of this experiment is to establish whether a change in temperature affects the rate in which woodlouse move. I measured the rate by timing the woodlouse to move a set distance of 20cm‚ and altered the surrounding temperature by submerging a clear tube in water with different temperatures controlled by a water bath. Research: It is to be believed there over 3000 different species of woodlice‚ a total of 42 species
