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 is Cell Metabolism?   the sum of All Chemical Reactions in a cell  
🗑
What determines Reation Direction/Law of Mass Action?   INCREASES in Reactant --> INCREASES in Product formation  
🗑
What are some of the determinants of Reaction Rates?   1. Chemical Concentrations of Reactants; 2. Temperature; 3. Activation Energy; 4. Catalysts  
🗑
How does Heat determine Reaction Rates?   1. provides high impact collisions need to impart Activation Energy  
🗑
What is Activation Energy?   Kinetic Enregy NECESSARY to start a Chemical Reaction  
🗑
What is the function of Catalysts?   SPEEDS up Reaction, but is not consumed  
🗑
Whata re Enzymes?   metabolic Catalysts  
🗑
What are the functions of Enzymes?   1. SPEED Reactions w/o being altered themselves; 2. DON"T CAUSE Reactions that would otherwise occur  
🗑
What is a Substrate?   Reactant: any Organic Molecule BOUND To or ACTED on by an Enzyme  
🗑
What is an Enzyme?   3-Dimensional Protein Catalyst  
🗑
What is an ES-Complex?   Substrate ADSORBED onto the surface of Enzyme, forming TEMPORARY Chemical Association  
🗑
What is Geometric Specificity?   one Enzyme reacts with only Specific Substrates  
🗑
What is an Active Site?   area of an Enzyme molecule that fits the Geometric Configuration of a Specific Substrate  
🗑
What is the basic scheme of Metabolic Reactions?   Enzyme + Substrate --> <-- ES-Complex --> <-- Products + Enzyme  
🗑
What is the fuction of Enzyme Action?   LOWERS Activation Energy requirements  
🗑
How does Enzyme Action LOWER Activation Energy?   1. WEAKENS/distorts existing bonds within a substrate or changes its shape; 2. promtes new bonds by properly ORIENTING 2 Substrates  
🗑


   

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.
