Which of the following best defines denature?

• An enzyme working in optimal conditions

• A substrate's shape changes to match the enzyme

• An enzyme's shape changes causing it to no longer catalyze reactions.

• An enzyme shape changes to match the substrate.

Answer explanation

Once the active site of an enzyme is changed enough, it can no longer bind with the specific substrate and will therefore not be able to complete the reactions.

Based on the graph, what is the optimal temperature for the enzyme?

Answer explanation

optimal = best

At what temperature does the enzyme denature?

Answer explanation

denature = destroyed and there will be no enzyme activity
