Enzymes are "Specific" which best describes this?

• function best under certain environmental conditions

• speeds up only one type of reaction. (Like a lock and key!!!) Example: Amylase – only breaks down starches.

• can catalyze the same reaction over and over again.

Enzymes are "Sensitive" which best describes this?

• function best under certain environmental conditions

• speeds up only one type of reaction. (Like a lock and key!!!) Example: Amylase – only breaks down starches.

• can catalyze the same reaction over and over again.

Enzymes are "Reusable" which best describes this?

• function best under certain environmental conditions

• speeds up only one type of reaction. (Like a lock and key!!!) Example: Amylase – only breaks down starches.

• can catalyze the same reaction over and over again.
