4.

A graph shows enzyme activity on the y-axis and temperature on the x-axis. The activity increases with temperature up to a point, then sharply decreases. What does the sharp decrease in activity most likely indicate?

a)

The enzyme is working at its optimal temperature

b)

The enzyme has become denatured

6.

Which of the following best describes the specificity of an enzyme for its substrate?

a)

Enzymes are not involved in substrate binding

b)

Enzymes can bind to any molecule

c)

Enzymes bind only to specific substrates due to the shape of their active site

d)

Enzymes change their shape to fit any substrate

7.

What effect does increasing substrate concentration have on the rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction when the enzyme is not saturated?

a)

The reaction rate decreases

b)

The reaction rate remains unchanged

c)

The enzyme is denatured
