enzyme Flashcards
enzyme
protein substance increase the reaction of chemical activity in the body but remain chemically unchange after the reaction
metabolism
sum of all chemical activity in the body
type of metabolism
anabolic-assemble small molecules into large
catabolic-break down large molecules into small
type of enzyme
carbs-amylase-in mouth protein-pepsin-stomach lipids-lipase-pancreas
LEKS
lock enzyme
key substrate
substrate fit with the active site in enzyme. due to weak bond the product will be release but enzyme remain unchange
factors affecting enzyme
temperature and Ph
temperature
increase in temperature will increase the rate but too high will cause the enzyme to lose it shape an no reaction will occur
Ph
increase and decrease in ph will slow down the reaction and too high or too low Ph will cause it too denature and lose it shape
