Enzymes
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| whats metabolism | metabolism are all the chemical reactions that occur in a organism. |
| whats homesstacis | internal balance |
| what are enzymes called | biological catalysts |
| how is a function of a protein decided | by the way the proteins folds into its 3d shape and its sequence of amino acids. |
| remember amino acid diagram | yes |
| how do enzymes work | enzymes react with a substrate,it is then coverted to a new proudct and enzymes are not used up. |
| whats the active site | the part of the enzyme that combines with substrate,it can change iits shape |
| what are globular proteins | spherical molecules that are highly water-soluble |
| catabolic and anabolic | catabolic is breaking down while anabolic builds complex molecules |
| whats the active site theory | when enzyme and substrate first join they dont fit. Active site changes shape and joins with substrate forming a temporary enzyme substrate complex.Proudct is made and active site returns to original shape. |
| denature | when a enzyme loses it shape |
| best ph for enzymes to work | 6-8 around neutral |
| Ph scale | 0-7 acidic,7-14 basic,7 neutral |
| where is enzyme catalyse found | liver of human body and in celery |
