Enzyme Test

Enzymes are considered to be 

• Lipids
• Carbohydrate
• Protein
• Nucleic Acid

What is the purpose  of an enzyme?

• give permission for the reaction
• raise activation energy
• speed up reactions
• control how many reactions occur

Where do substrates bind on an enzyme?

• reactive site

• surface receptor

• activia site

• active site

Enzymes are capable of increasing the rate of a chemical reaction within a living cell.  Enzymes accomplish this through which of the following means?

• reducing the number of products   
• reducing the activation energy
• increasing the temperature of the cell
• increasing the concentration of reactants 

What is a substance called if it speeds up a chemical reaction?

• reusable
• catalyst
• specific
• fragile

Once a new product leaves an enzyme, the enzyme is unchanged and ready for the next substrate.  What is this called?

• reusable
• catalyst
• specific
• fragile

What 3 letters do enzymes typically end in?

• -ose
• -ase
• -ese
• -tic

Any substance that is acted upon by an enzyme is called a(n)?

• Coenzyme
• Substrate
• Vitamin
• Polypeptide

After the enzyme and substrate bind together and perform the reaction, what does the substrate become?

• a substrate
• an enzyme
• a product
• an active site

What happens when enzymes are heated to a high temperature?

• The enzymes die.
• The shapes of the enzyme are altered denature
• The enzymes' amino acid sequence changes.
• The enzymes remain the same
