16
Q

Oxidation of glucose

A

An exergonic reaction which drives the synthesis of ATP which is endergonic

17
Q

Cellular respiration is

A

40%. Efficient

18
Q

Uncatalyzed reaction

A

Require a higher activation energy than catalyzed but the no difference in free energy

19
Q

Active site

A

Uninduced enzyme binding the first substrate changing it to
enzyme-substrate-complex

20
Q

Every reaction in cells require its specific

A

Enzyme and named after their substrates

21
Q

Factors affecting the speed of enzyme

A

Substrate concentration
Enzyme concentration
Temperature and Ph

22
Q

Substrate concentration increases

A

Enzyme activity increases

23
Q

More enzyme

A

More and faster reaction

24
Q

Higher temperature

A

Speed reaction unless gets to high and denatures the protein

25
A change in —- can alter the ionization of the R groups in amino acid and change the shape of the protein
PH
26
Many enzyme requires —— to function properly
Inorganic mineral or organic non protein coenzyme Cofactors
27
Occurs when an active enzyme is prevented from combing whit its substrate
Enzyme inhibition
28
Heavy metals acts like
Non competitive inhibition changes the shape
29
Changing the ph toward the optimal ph will
Increase the rate of reaction
30
Competitive inhibition
Interferes with active site so substrate can not bind
