My hypothesis: If a certain type of protein is digested, then there will be a higher rate of denaturation that takes place.
Independent variable (manipulated): Types of protein (beef, chicken, whey protein powder)
Dependent variable (produced): enzymatic activity (mass [kg] lost during denaturation)
Control: Grams of protein, synthetic stomach acid concentration
My science fair project imitates how employees at gyms stay fit: they know what the best available protein is as well as a proper fitness regimen. Since my senior project topic is "24 Hour Fitness®", and I am learning various aspects of being a part of that company, I have learned that my own fitness level plays a part. I would like to model proper habits for gym members and employees.
