Enzymes
Question | Answer |
---|---|
1.Enzymes | are substances that cause chemical reactions to occur faster. |
2.catalyst | enzymes are a type of catalyst |
3.substrates. | Ribosomes produce specific enzymes to act on specific substances, |
4.active sites. | Most enzymes have a surface with one or more deep folds. The folds make pockets |
5.enzyme’s shape | is key to how the enzyme functions. |
6.RNA polymerase is | enzymes that is essential to the process of transcription |
7.Molecules of mRNA are | transcribed by RNA polymerases and later new protein molecules are synthesized based on the instructions coded in the mRNA. |
8.Changes in temperature and pH can affect | the shape of an enzyme’s active sites |
9.enzymes are only able to | work properly in a certain temperature and pH range. |
10.the enzyme catalase assists in the | breakdown of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen |
11.Enzymes work by | decreasing the amount of energy needed to activate the chemical reaction. |
12.without enzymes catalyzing metabolic reactions | cells would not be able to perform metabolism quickly enough to support life13. |
13.Most enzymes are | proteins |
14.enzymes are produced by | a cell’s ribosomes. |
15.Ribosomes produce specific enzymes to | act on specific substances, called substrates |
16.the enzyme catalase assists in the breakdown of | hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. |
17.hydrogen peroxide is | catalyses substrate |
18.Enzymes are also important for | the synthesis of new molecules |
19.The shape of an enzyme determines | how it works |
20.Most enzymes have a surface with | one or more deep folds |
21.The active sites match folds in | the substrate’s surface |
22.Thus, a particular enzyme fits against | its substrate like two adjacent puzzle pieces |
23.protein are in what food | steaks |
24.proteins is a good source of nutrients | its good to eat. you shouldn't eat to much of it. |
25.enzymes are a type of candy (-8 | no |
