Digestive Enzymes Explained - Complete KS3 Biology Lesson Pack
📦 Everything you need to teach digestive enzymes at KS3 — two complete resources, full answer keys, and no preparation required. This lesson pack covers the lock and key model, where each catalyst is made, and the effects of temperature and pH for students aged 11-14.
Digestive enzymes are biological catalysts that break large food molecules into small ones the body can absorb.
📝 The main worksheet contains 16 questions worth 100 marks across three progressive sections: multiple choice, true or false and a word-bank summary (30 marks); definitions, a completion table and written answers on the lock and key model and where each catalyst is made (40 marks); and extended answers on denaturing, biological washing powder and optimum conditions (30 marks). The extension pack provides four enrichment activities — a 12-mark vocabulary matching exercise, a 26-mark challenge quiz, a 20-mark pineapple and jelly case study, and a rubric-assessed Teach It Back task. Full answer keys are included for everything. Everything comes as a PDF and an editable Word file (DOCX).
