Answer 10

reactants

Question 11

how does an enzyme work?

Answer 11

lowers activation energy needed for reaction

Question 12

what limits the rate of reaction?

Answer 12

concentration of enzymes

Question 13

molecules that bind to enzyme to prevent/reduce rate of substrate binding to enzyme

Answer 13

inhibitors

Question 14

a molecule that looks like subtrate can compete for space at active site

Answer 14

competitive inhibition
