B.11B Enzymes

The diagram represents one way an enzyme can be inhibited.

Which statement explains the effect of an inhibitor on an enzyme?

• A substrate will be able to bond with the enzyme.

• The enzyme will likely be attacked by immune cells.

• The enzyme will be unable to produce more enzymes.

• A substrate will be unable to attach to the enzyme.

The graphs show the reaction rate for an enzyme across a range of temperatures and pH. Based on these data, the enzyme functions best at what temperature and pH?

• temperature of 27 degrees C and pH of 4

• temperature of 37 degrees C and pH of 6

• temperature of 40 degrees C and pH of 8

• temperature of 50 degrees C and pH of 10

Changes in pH and temperature can ___________________ an enzyme which causes it to lose its shape and affects its function.

• denature

• double
