16
Q

A group of enzymes that all catalyze the same substrate in different conditions

17
Q

Tri-phosphate group from ATP is added into the enzyme changing it shape and possibly inactivating it

A

Phosphorylation (enzyme control mechanism)

18
Q

The product of the process binds to the enzyme inactivating it

A

Feedback inhibition (enzyme control mechanism)

19
Q

Similar to noncompetitive inhibition where a molecule binds to a non-active site to change the shape of the enzyme either activating or inactivating it

A

Allosteric regulation (enzyme control mechanism)

20
Q

Breaks down carbohydrates, starches, and sugars which are prevalent and potatoes, fruits, vegetables, and many snackfoods

21
Q

Breaks down hydrogen peroxide

22
Q

Breaks down lactose, milk sugars

23
Q

Digests complex sugars and starches

Sucrose + water (hydrolysis)—-> glucose + fructose

A

Sucrase or invertase

24
Q

Breaks down proteins found in meats, nuts, eggs, and cheese

25
Breaks down fats found in most dairy products, nuts, oils, and meat
Lipase
26
An animal derived enzyme, breaks down proteins, fats, and carbohydrates
Pancrelipase
27
An animal derived enzyme, and a component of every long cell, very important in the control of infections- attacks invading bacteria and viruses **not digestive system-immune**
Lysozyme
28
Bonds nucleotides to new DNA strands
Polymerase (anabolic)
29
Bonds phosphates, sugars, and nucleotides a new DNA strands (puts together DNA)
Ligase (anabolic)
