1.14 concentrations Flashcards
1
Q
The rate of an enzyme controlled reaction is affected by?
A
concenration of reactants (substrates)
concentratoin fo the enzyme
2
Q
substrate concentration
A
increasing substrate concentration will result in an increased rate of reaction until the optimum concentration is reached
as the optimum concentration all the active sites will be occupied and the rate of reaction will not increase further it will plateau
3
Q
enzyme concentration
A
an increase in enzyme concentration will result in an increased rate of reaction if there is enough substrate.
