It depends on the church denomination. Some churches have parishioners sit or kneel. But the most important act is reverent respect and prayer between you and God, you and Jesus Christ.
The consecration of the gifts
Incense is called for four times during the Mass. At the entrance rite, the celebrant uses incense to cense the altar, and the congregation is already standing; then at the Gospel, the congregation is already standing to hear the Gospel proclaimed. When the gifts of censed, the congregation is sitting - not standing, they do stand if they are going to be incensed - out of respect, but otherwise, they are just sitting. The fourth time is at the consecration, when everyone is kneeling.
Striking one's breast three times during the Consecration in a Catholic Mass is a gesture of penance and humility, symbolizing sorrow for sin and a plea for mercy. This action is part of the "Agnus Dei" or "Lamb of God" prayer, reflecting the congregation's recognition of their unworthiness and need for God's grace. It serves as a reminder of the sacrificial nature of the Eucharist and the importance of repentance in the faith.
Consecration is also benediction, blessing and dedication.
The moment during mass when transubstantiation occurs is called the consecration.

Roman Catholic AnswerStarting back when the consecration was held at a remote altar and the canon (the Eucharistic prayer) was said in a low voice with the priest bending over the altar, a bell was run at the point where the consecration actually took place. This has been done for hundreds of years, and is still recommended even though the people can plainly heard the priest now.
