Circle to active site.

Draw

Draw the substrates for the enzymes.

Multiple Choice

When an enzyme has been denatured it means

• The enzyme is more stable and less active.
• The enzyme has lost its shape, affecting its activity.

• The enzyme can bind more substrates.

• The enzyme is now permanently inactive.

Multiple Choice

• pH

• Too much substrate

• Temperature

• Too much enzymes

Draw

Circle the temperatures at which the enzyme becomes denatured.
