Enzymes

(Majority of) Enzymes are what kind of Macromolecules?

• Carbohydrates
• Nucleic acids
• Proteins

What is the MAIN function of enzymes?

• To digest bacteria

• To act as a catalyst

• To maintain homeostasis in cells

According to the diagram, what is the function of the active site?

• The entrance of substrate to get inside the enzyme

• The filter site of enzymes for the substrate

• Where the substrate bind for chemical reaction

Catalyst Slows down chemical reaction

• TRUE

• FALSE

In the diagram, when products are produced and released, what will happen to the enzyme?

• Ready for another chemical reaction

• Will be destroyed

• Will be deformed

This refers to the structural breakdown of an enzyme, which results in the loss of its biological activity

• Optimal breakdown

• Denaturation

• Saturation

An increased in temperature means

• Increased enzymatic activity

• Decreased enzymatic activity

A decreased in pH means

• Increased enzymatic activity

• Decreased enzymatic activity

This is a scale that measures how acidic or basic a substance is

• Temperature

• Substance concentration

• pH

A susbtance with a pH of 1 means?

• Acidic

• Neutral

• Basic
