A

enzyme

17
Q

energy required to start a metabolic reaction

A

activation energy

18
Q

chemicals that are metabolized by an enzyme catalyzed retain. enzyme places stress on chemical bonds, decreasing energy need to breack the bonds (activation energy)

A

substrate

19
Q

where the substrate binds to the enzyme. has own shape and chemistry

A

active site

20
Q

shape chane by enzyme in response to substrate binding. creates stress on substrate bonds and resume shape after reaction

A

induced fit

21

result of chape and active site of enzyme. due to differing unique sequences of amino acids and their side group

A

specificity

22

A

metabolic rate

24
Q

resting energy of awake body. average is 70kcal/hr

A

basal metabolic rate (BMR)

A

testosterone

26
Q

calores to consume

A
