Reactions!

Biology students study enzyme function and reactions. Students placed cow liver in a test tube of hydrogen peroxide. The catalase enzyme in the liver breaks down the toxin into harmless water and oxygen bubbles. This lab demonstrates how our liver functions and how an enzyme can help lower the energy needed for important reactions like this happening in our body.
