Chemical reactions and enzymes

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Question
Answer
What do enzymes speed up?   Chemical reactions.  
🗑
What do enzymes lower?   Activation energy.  
🗑
Which type of chemical reaction results in a release of energy?   Exergonic- energy exits  
🗑
What is a chemical reaction?   The making or breaking of chemical bonds.  
🗑
Why do chemical reactions occur?   Collisions between molecules.  
🗑
What happens to the rate of a reaction when you have a higher concentration of molecules together?   The reaction will be faster because you have more collisions.  
🗑
How does pH affect enzyme activity?   The optimum ph is where the enzyme works the best, as we move away your enzyme slows down,  
🗑
How does temperature affect enzyme activity?   Increased temperature speeds up the reaction, decreased temperature slows down the reaction.  
🗑
What is it called when the enzyme has stopped working and the enzyme activity graph goes straight down?   Denaturation  
🗑
What physically happens to the enzyme when it has been denatured?   The enzyme experiences a change in shape, so it cannot fit with its substrate, and there is no chemical reaction.  
🗑
What happens when an enzyme has a shape change?   No chemical reaction!  
🗑
What is the monomer of a protein?   Amino acids  
🗑
What is the monomer of a carbohydrate?   Glucose  
🗑
What is the monomer of a lipid?   NONE!  
🗑
What happens to to an enzyme when its shape has been changed by either hot temperatures or pH changes?   Denaturation  
🗑
The smaller units that join together to make a polymer.   Monomer  
🗑
Type of carbohydrate animals use for quick energy.   Glycogen  
🗑
Monomer of nucleic acid   nucleotide  
🗑
Type of carbohydrate plants use to store energy, it gives us quick a quick source of energy.   starch  
🗑
When this is added to an enzyme it will denature   heat  
🗑
Type of chemical reaction that releases energy   Exergonic  
🗑
Energy required to start a chemical reaction   activation energy  
🗑
Macromolecule responsible for long term energy storage, insulation, and repelling water   lipid  
🗑
The specific location on an enzyme that the substrate binds to   Active site  
🗑
Large molecules composed of many smaller molecules bonded together.   Macromolecules  
🗑
Monomer of a protein   Aminoacid  
🗑
Formed when an enzyme fits it substrate   enzyme substrate complex  
🗑
The process of making or breaking chemical bonds that link atoms   Chemical reaction  
🗑
The monomer of carbohydrates   Glucose  
🗑
Extreme levels of this can denature enzymes   pH  
🗑
Molecule that speeds up chemical reactions   Enzyme  
🗑
A molecule made up of repeated parts called monomers   polymers  
🗑
Macromolecule that store genetic information   nucleicacid  
🗑
The substance that an enzyme works on   Substrate  
🗑
Macromolecule that provides usable energy to living things in the form of of sugars and starches   carbohydrates  
🗑
Type of chemical reaction that requires energy   Endergonic  
🗑
Type of carbohydrate used for plant structure.   cellulose  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
