enzyme and substrate concentration

Question 1

vmax

Answer 1

maximum rate of reaction/ reaction plateaus
* enzyme is fully saturated by the substate

Question 1

higher the enzyme concentration

Answer 1

the greater the number of active sites available and the greater the likelihood of enzyme-substrate complex formation

Question 2

The greater the substrate concentration, the higher the rate of reaction

Answer 2

number of substrate molecules increases, the likelihood of enzyme-substrate complex formation increases

Question 3

same number of enzymes but more substrates added

Answer 3

all available active sites become saturated and any further increase in substrate concentration will not increase the reaction rate substrates
have nowhere to bind in order to form an enzyme-substrate complex

Question 4

when you see enzyme

Answer 4

think active site!
