7.2 Flashcards
Define Enzymes
It is a Catalyst that makes chemical reactions faster. It is also a protein.
Define Catalyst
It will speed of a chemical reaction without changing it’s shape.
Define Chemical Reaction
A process where reactant(s) go through a transformation into product(s).
Define Activation Energy
The least amount of energy it requires to start a reactions.
Define Substrate
Substance an enzyme can work with.
Define Active Site
The place where enzymes and substrates preform a chemical reaction.
All enzymes are catalyst?
True
All catalyst are enzymes?
False
Activators
Cofactors and Coenzymes
Inhibitors
Connective and Nonconnective
Enzymes concentration
Make concentration quicker as long as there is substrate.
Substrate Concentration
Make concentration quicker as long as there are enzymes.
Temperature
Starts with speeding up the particle but then will break the bond eventually.
pH
The enzymes will have the highest rate at the perfect pH. As pH increases or decreases from perfect pH, the reaction rate will decrease.
