Enzyme Environment Explorer
In this interactive Biology activity, you’ll connect concepts like enzyme activity, protein denaturation, optimal pH, optimal temperature, enzyme-substrate, catalysis, and protein structure.
Find each enzyme’s “happy place.” Pick an enzyme (like Amylase, Pepsin, or Catalase), then slide temperature and pH to discover where it works best—and where it breaks down. You’ll see shape changes and behavior shift in real time.
Key Features:
– Nine enzyme choices, each with its own personality
– Temperature (0–100 °C) and pH (0–14) controls you can fine‑tune
– Visual cues for denaturation when conditions get extreme
– Progress tracking as you discover optimal conditions
– A clean, focused view so you can concentrate on patterns
