Enzymes

Most enzymes have the ending:

• -ase
• -ose
• -ic acid
• -ate

When a molecule can occupy the same active site as the substrate, a situation called __________________ can result

• Competitive lnhibition
• Allosteric Regulation
• Non-Competitive Inhibition
• Feedback Inhibition

What is the purpose  of an enzyme?

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

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

Match the following

• Active Site

• Part of enzyme where reactants bind to

• Competitive

• Binds to active site

• Catalyst

• Speeds up a chemical reaction without being used up

• Substrate

• Binds at a different spot on enzyme to change shape

• Allosteric

• Binds to active site to slow reaction
