Front

What is oxidation?

Back

Loss of electrons.

Front

What will increase the rate of a reaction?

Back

Increasing the enzyme.

Front

Where does the substrate bind on an enzyme?

Back

Active site.

Front

What are the products of the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis?

Back

NADPH & ATP.

Front

Where did photosynthesis first evolve?

Back

Prokaryotic organisms.

Front

What is reduction in a chemical reaction?

Back

Gain of electrons.

Front

What is the role of enzymes in biological reactions?

Back

To speed up the reaction by lowering the activation energy.

Front

What is the function of ATP in cells?

Back

To provide energy for cellular processes.

Front

What is the difference between competitive and non-competitive inhibitors?

Back

Competitive inhibitors bind to the active site, while non-competitive inhibitors bind to another site.

Front

What is the significance of the active site on an enzyme?

Back

It is the region where the substrate binds and the reaction occurs.
