| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Provide examples of kinetic and potential energy. | Kinetic: Moving water and wind Potential: Hanging apple |
| Explain how coupled reactions link endergonic with exergonic reactions. | the energy released by an exergonic reaction drives an endergonic reaction |
| List the two components from which ATP is generated. | adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and inorganic phosphate |
| Describe how enzymes affect the energy of activation | bring the substrates into contact with one another |
| Explain the induced-fit model of enzyme function | the cycle starts with the active site open and substrate free in solution. The substrate approaches the enzyme and then binds at the active site. Substrate binding causes a change in the shape of the enzyme such that the catalytic parts of the enzyme are |
| Explain how enzymes are named. | they are usually named for their substrates. EX: end in -ase |
| Describe how substrate concentration, enzyme concentration, pH, and temperature affect enzyme speed |
