16
Q

What is a substrate

A

Enzymes are specific. They can only bind to one substance which we call a substrate

17
Q

What method is enzymes and their substrates use

A

Lock and key

18
Q

What is a active site

A

Enzymes have an active site. It has a very particular shape, and is where the enzyme specific substrate will bind

19
Q

What’s an enzyme substrate complex

A

When the substrate binds with the enzyme an enzyme substrate complex forms facilitating the reaction

20
Q

What are the products of enzyme

A

The action of the enzyme results in product(s) being produced

21
Q

What the two kinds of reactions and name that are controlled by enzymes

A

Degradation =break down reaction
Synthesis =build up reaction

22
Q

How do we indicate reduced sugars

A

Benedict’s solution is used as an indicator for reduced sugars ( blue to orange )

23
Q

How do we know starch is presence

A

Iodine is used as an indicator of start presence by turning black

24
Q

What dose amylase break down too

A

Maltose

25
Q

Definition of a biological catalyst

A

A chemical that speeds up chemical reaction

26
Q

Definition of a biological catalyst

A chemical that speeds up chemical reaction

27
Q

Definition of a biological catalyst

28
Q

A c______ is a c______

A

Control
Comparison

29
Q

What’s dose a control is a comparison mean

A

Experiment to prove that it is the independent variable which is causing the result

30
Q

What is a independent variable

A

The variable that is changed in an experiment

31
Q

Calculate how many times greater the concentration of product was after 40 minutes than at the start of product at 0mins was 12 and product at 40mins is 96

A

8

Because if you divide 12 by 96 you get 8 so 12 times 8 is 96

32
Q

Calculate how many times lower the substance was after 40 minutes than at the start of product at 0mins was 36 and product at 40mins is 0.13

A

4.68

As you times the 40min number 0.13 by the 0min number 36 you get 4.68
