Enzymes Flashcards
Are enzymes not specific
No it is
What method is enzyme and substrates us
The lock and key method
What is the substance that only bind to enzymes
Substrate
What’s the active site the enzymes have
Enzymes have an active site. It has a very particular shape, and is where the enzymes specific substrate will bind
The enzymes active site must be the ____ shape for the ______
Right
Substrate
What’s the enzyme-substrate complex
When the substrate binds with the enzyme an enzyme-substrate complex forms, facilitating the reaction
What’s the products of enzyme
The action of the enzyme results in product(s) being produced.
Label in notes
What are the two kinds of reactions that are controlled by enzymes
Degradation ( break down ) reactions
Synthesis (build up) reactions
What are enzymes
It’s a biological catalyst
Where are enzymes found
Enzymes are found in produced by every living cell
What are enzymes made of
Enzymes are made of protein
What do enzymes do to the chemical reaction
Enzymes speed up a chemical reaction
During a chemical reaction dose anything happen to the the enzyme
They remain unchanged in the chemical reaction
What do we call the substance an enzyme acts on
Enzymes are specific to their substrate
What is a substrate
Enzymes are specific. They can only bind to one substance which we call a substrate
What method is enzymes and their substrates use
Lock and key
What is a active site
Enzymes have an active site. It has a very particular shape, and is where the enzyme specific substrate will bind
What’s an enzyme substrate complex
When the substrate binds with the enzyme an enzyme substrate complex forms facilitating the reaction
What are the products of enzyme
The action of the enzyme results in product(s) being produced
What the two kinds of reactions and name that are controlled by enzymes
Degradation =break down reaction
Synthesis =build up reaction
How do we indicate reduced sugars
Benedict’s solution is used as an indicator for reduced sugars ( blue to orange )
How do we know starch is presence
Iodine is used as an indicator of start presence by turning black
What dose amylase break down too
Maltose
