Enzyme Quiz

Enzyme

• proteins that speed up chemical reactions

• Changing substances by breaking and forming bonds (includes hydrolysis and dehydration reactions)

• the capacity for doing work

• the energy needed to start a chemical reaction

Activation energy

• proteins that speed up chemical reactions

• Changing substances by breaking and forming bonds (includes hydrolysis and dehydration reactions)

• the capacity for doing work

• the energy needed to start a chemical reaction

Reactants

• the substances changed during a chemical reaction (goes into the process)

• the substances made by a chemical reaction (comes out of the process)

• substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction

• reactant of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction

Products

• the substances changed during a chemical reaction (goes into the process)

• the substances made by a chemical reaction (comes out of the process)

• substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction

• reactant of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction

Catalysts

• the substances changed during a chemical reaction (goes into the process)

• the substances made by a chemical reaction (comes out of the process)

• substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction

• reactant of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction

Substrate

• the substances changed during a chemical reaction (goes into the process)

• the substances made by a chemical reaction (comes out of the process)

• substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction

• reactant of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction

Active site

• the region of an enzyme that attaches to a substrate

• a change in the shape of a protein (such as an enzyme) that can be caused by changes in temperature or pH (among other things).

• substance that can bind to an enzyme and prevent the substrate from properly binding

• macromolecules that contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen, include enzymes
