For this assignment, you are tasked with explaining (using BOTH words and diagrams) the interconnectedness of the enzyme Lactase with your Chemistry lessons concerning Activation Energy and reaction rates.

  • In your written and visual explanation, you must use the following vocabulary terms/phrases: enzyme, Lactase, energy, Activation Energy, reaction rate, reactants, and products. The illustration/diagram/graph that you include with your submission can be hand-drawn or created digitally; stock images from an outside resource that is not of your own, original creation will not be accepted.
  • You also need to incorporate information to answer the “scientific question”: why is my stomach “rumbling” after eating lots of ice cream (what is the scientific and real-world correlation)?
