1
Q
Where do the enzyme and substrate bond?
A
active site
2

What is a product?
A
the result of a chemical reaction?
3
Q
What is the function of an enzyme?
A
It is a catalyst for substrates in chemical reactions
4
Q
What is activation energy?
A
the minimum amount of energy required to start a reaction
5
Q
Why does substrate concentration level out the curve products
A
The amount of substrates is larger and there are not enough enzymes to react with all of them.
