A

sub- strate

18
Q

substitutes

A

bind to an enzyme via an active site

19
Q

co factor

A

non protein assistant for enzymes

20
Q

competitive inhibition

A

reduce enzymes production by blocking access to molecules to active site

21
Q

non- competitive inhibitor

A

binds allsoteric, making a change to active site’s configuration.

22
Q

feedback mechanism

A
  • negative- product acts as an inhibition
  • positive- product acts as a catalyst
