Enzymes
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| what are enzymes made of? | protein |
| Which bonds are the most sensitive to heat? | hydrogen |
| what is the area that the substrate binds to called? | active site |
| an inhibitor that binds and alters the shape of the active site is called | non competitive |
| an inhibitor that blocks the active site is called | competitive |
| boiling enzymes causes | denaturation |
| the active site attracts the substrate and isa... | complementary shape |
| the highest rate of reaction occurs at the | optimum pH and temperature |
| Enzyme names end in this | ase |
| the fact that enzyme moulds around the shape of the substrate is called | induced fit model |
