A student accidentally eats spoiled meat. The digestive enzymes in the stomach are still breaking down the proteins. Which enzyme is mainly responsible for this reaction?
Amylase
Lipase
Protease
Catalase
A teenager drinks lactose-rich milk but later experiences bloating and cramps. Which enzyme is most likely lacking in their digestive system?
Amylase
Lactase
Lipase
Protease
A scientist changes just one amino acid in the hemoglobin protein. As a result, the protein does not function properly, leading to sickle cell anemia. This illustrates the importance of which protein structure?
Primary
Secondary
Tertiary
Quaternary
A diabetic patient injects insulin daily. Insulin is an example of which protein type?
Hormonal protein
Transport protein
Defensive protein
Structural protein
A group of students test how pH affects enzyme activity. They observe that amylase works best at pH 7, while pepsin works best at pH 2. What conclusion can they make?
All enzymes work best in acidic conditions
Enzyme activity depends on the specific optimal pH
pH does not affect enzyme activity
Enzymes denature only at high pH
During an experiment, a student adds a chemical that blocks the enzyme’s active site. Which type of inhibition is this?
Irreversible
Non-competitive
Uncompetitive
Competitive
A long-distance runner consumes eggs and meat for recovery. Which function of protein is most related to this dietary choice?
Energy storage
Repair of tissues
DNA replication
Signal transmission
A student argues that all proteins act as enzymes. Which statement best corrects this?
True, because proteins always speed up reactions.
True, because all proteins are catalysts.
False, because proteins have different functions beyond catalysis.
False, because enzymes are carbohydrates.
TRUE or FALSE
Enzymes can be reused after catalyzing a reaction.
(a)
TRUE or FALSE
All amino acids can be synthesized by the human body, so we don’t need them from food.
(a)
TRUE or FALSE
Enzyme activity always increases as temperature rises.
(a)
TRUE or FALSE
Without enzymes, digestion of food would still happen at the same speed.
(a)
