Which type of molecule are enzymes?
Enzymes only work with specific substrates because each enzyme:
Changes in the shape of an enzyme can affect its ability to function correctly. This loss of shape (denaturation) can occur as a result of _______________.

At about what temperature do BOTH the human enzyme and thermophilic enzyme catalyze (help the reaction go) chemical reaction (at least a little)? Hint - look at where the 2 lines overlap!

Which enzyme from the graph would most likely be found in a bacterium living in hot springs (close to the boiling point of water)?
In the lock and key model of of enzyme function shown above, what is happening in step 2?


Which enzyme works best (optimal pH) in an acidic environment (pH less than 7)

This diagram shows what happens to lactose in the small intestine with lactase present
| Stavka koja se može prevući | arrow_right_alt | Odgovarajuća stavka |
|---|---|---|
glucose + galactose | arrow_right_alt | substrate |
lactase | arrow_right_alt | products |
lactose | arrow_right_alt | enzyme |
