Review Notebook: Unit 3 CED Flashcardizz (MCQ only)

Front

What happens to the reaction rate if the enzyme is denatured?

Back

The reaction rate decreases.

Front

What is an inhibitor that binds to the active site of an enzyme called?

Back

Competitive inhibitor.

Front

Which step of photosynthesis stores solar energy as ATP?

Back

Light Reactions.

Front

What process performed by bacteria causes a low pH?

Back

Fermentation/Glycolysis.

Front

What describes light independent reactions?

Back

Calvin cycle to synthesize organic compounds.

Front

What is denaturation in the context of enzymes?

Back

Denaturation is the process where an enzyme loses its functional shape, affecting its activity.

Front

What is the role of competitive inhibitors in enzyme activity?

Back

They compete with the substrate for the active site, reducing the rate of reaction.

Front

What are the two main stages of photosynthesis?

Back

Light-dependent reactions and light-independent reactions (Calvin Cycle).

Front

What is the main product of the light reactions of photosynthesis?

Back

ATP and NADPH.

Front

What is fermentation?

Back

A metabolic process that converts sugar to acids, gases, or alcohol in the absence of oxygen.
