Front

What happens to enzyme activity when substrate concentration increases?

Back

Enzyme activity typically increases with increasing substrate concentration until a saturation point is reached.

Front

What is the effect of cyanide on ATP production?

Back

Cyanide stops the mitochondria from producing ATP, leading to a slow down and eventual cessation of chemical reactions.

What happens to enzymes when they are heated to a high temperature?

Back

Enzymes denature when heated to high temperatures.

Front

Define cellular respiration.

Back

Cellular respiration is the process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into energy (ATP), carbon dioxide, and water.

What is enzyme denaturation?

Back

Enzyme denaturation is the process where an enzyme loses its functional shape due to external stress, such as high temperature or extreme pH.

Front

What role do enzymes play in biochemical reactions?

Back

Enzymes act as catalysts to speed up biochemical reactions by lowering the activation energy required.

Front

What is the relationship between temperature and enzyme activity?

Back

Enzyme activity generally increases with temperature up to an optimal point, after which it decreases due to denaturation.
