Q

What is activation energy

A

Energy needed for the reaction to occur

25
What if the activation energy is to high
reaction doesn't occur under normal conditions
26
What do enzymes do
Decrease the activation energy required
27
What is formed when the substrate is bound to the active site
Enzyme-substrate complex
28
How are the products formed from the enzyme
Substrates react with the enzyme
29
What is it called when substrates react and products are formed
enzyme-product complex
30
The enzyme holds the substrate in a specific way which allows what do happen
the right atom groups are close enough to react
31
What do the R-groups in the active site do
interact with the substrate forming temporary bonds
32
What does the induced-fit hypothesis state
The active site of the enzyme changes slightly as the substrate enters
33
What is the induced-fit hypothesis a modified version of
Lock and key hypothesis
34
How strong is the initial interaction between the enzyme and substrate
relatively weak
35
What do the weak interactions rapidly induce
changes in the enzymes tertiary structure
36
Where are intra-cellular enzymes found
Inside the cells
37
What is hydrogen peroxide a product of
many metabolic pathways
38
What enzyme breaks hydrogen peroxide into oxygen and water
catalase
39
Which types of tissue is catalase found
- Animal | - Plant
40
What do all reactions happening within cells need
Substrates
41
Why do reactions inside cells need substrates
to make products needed by the organism
42
why do these substrates (raw materials) need to be constantly supplied to cells
to keep up with the demand
43
How do enzymes effect activation energy
They lower it
44
Name an enzyme produced in the salivary glands
Salivary amylase
45
Name an enzyme produced in the pancreas
trypsin and chymotrypsin
46
What does trypsin and chymotrypsin do
Helps break down protein
47
Where is trypsin and chymotrypsin found
In the
48
What 4 factors effect enzyme activity
- pH - Temperature - Enzyme concentration - Substrate concentration
49
What factors would effect the shape of the enzyme
Temperature | pH
50
What factors would effect the chances of a collision between enzymes and substrate
- pH - Temperature - Enzyme concentration - Substrate concentration
51
What is the molecule that can interfere with the action of the enzyme
Inhibitor
52
What are the 2 types of inhibitors
Irreversible and reversible
53
What do inhibitors do
They reduce the compatibility of the substrate to the enzyme substrate complexs'
54
What does reducing the compatibility of the substrate do to the reaction rate in enzymes
Prevents catalyzation of reactions, decreasing the amount of product produced by a reaction
55
What type of enzymes do reversible inhibitors attach to
enzymes with non-covalent interactions
56
Give examples of non-covalent interactions
- H+ bonds - hydrophobic interactions - ionic bonds
57
What bonding type will a irreversible inhibitor bind to the enzyme using
Covalent bond
58
What do the multiple weak bonds between the inhibitor and active site do
They combine to produce strong and specific bonds
