• they add more heat than matches

• they are living things

• they provide activation energy

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

• Coenzyme
• Substrate
• Vitamin
• Polypeptide

Based on the graph, what temperature is optimum for this enzyme?

• 15 C

• 40 C

• 30 C

The induced fit model says enzymes:

• enzymes can operate in a wide range of conditions
• enzymes are specific to a substrate like a lock & key
• enzymes are activated by neighboring molecules
• enzymes mold with their substrates for a good fit

Lines 1 and 2 show 2 different:

• Free energies (ΔG)
• Enthalpies (ΔH)
• Activation energies (E_a)
• Entropies (ΔS)

Inorganic molecules (like metal ions) that bind to enzymes and enhance an enzyme's ability are called:

• CoFactors
• CoEnzymes
• Allosteric Inhibitors
• Allosteric Activators

Organic molecules (like vitamins) that temporarily bind to enzymes and enhance an enzyme's ability are called:

• CoFactors
• CoEnzymes
• Allosteric Inhibitors
• Allosteric Activators

When an enzyme is denatured:

• The secondary & tertiary structures unfold

• The primary structure of the enzyme breaks down

• Allosteric sites are bound to inhibitors

• The enzyme is working at its maximum rate
