Title: Beano Lab
Length of Time: 4 days
Objective: Students will know that it takes a reaction (possibly enzyme catalyzed) to convert biomass into a more usable form. Students will analyze and present their findings on the lab they complete to the class on the enzyme action that is affected by an environmental variable.
Standards: Biology Standards: B.1.1, B1.2, B.1.3
Biomass Standards: Students will know that it takes a reaction (possibly enzyme catalyzed) to convert biomass into a more usable form.
21st Century Standards: Collaboration, Critical Thinking, Communication
Materials:
· Bean Solution
· Beano Solution
· Glucose Test Strips
-Glucose Meter
· Graduated Cylinders
· Test Tube Rack
· Test Tubes (2)
· Thermometer
· Timing Instrument
· Pipettes (2)
· Water
· Water Bath
General Procedure:
Assessment: Written lab report at the conclusion of all labs that deal with enzymes and the effects on them by environmental variables.

General Procedure:
- Students will use test the amount of glucose in the bean mixture before starting.
- They will add the beano to the mixture and place it in the water bath and then test the amount of glucose at a time interval of their choosing.
- They will then present their results and conclusions to the class in a board room discussion.
