Enzymes, Organic life compounds, and Cells

Question 1

Nucleus

Answer 1

controls cell activity (DNA is found in the nucleus)

Question 2

ribosomes

Answer 2

makes proteins

Question 3

Mitochondria

Answer 3

Breaks glucose molecules to make ATP energy. This process is called cellular respiration.

controls activity in and out on the cell

Question 5

vacuoles

Answer 5

stores large amount of sugar and water in cells

Question 6

cell wall

Answer 6

protects and holds the cell

Question 7

Biological catalysts

Question 11

What is the optimum temperature or pH

Answer 11

The optimum temperature is the temp/pH where an enzyme works best.

Question 12

What happens when an enzyme denatures?

Answer 12

It looses its shape and doesn’t work

Question 13

Answer 13

An enzyme-substrate complex

Question 14

What do enzymes do?

Answer 14

Catalyze/speed up reactions

Question 15

What is hydrolysis?

Answer 15

The process when a substrate breaks down when reacting with an enzyme

Question 16
