Various enzymes in our bodies are:

Lipids

Carbohydrates

Nucleotides

Proteins

1

Enzymes only work with specific substrates because each enzyme:

Has an active site which only fits substrates with a particular shape.

Can only make ionic bonds.

Cannot change shape.

Becomes denatured when it is heated.

1

Structural changes in an enzyme can affect its ability to function correctly. This denaturation can occur as a result of _______________.

Extreme temperature change

Change in pH

Addition of substrates

Both A and B are correct

What is the optimal temperature for this enzyme?

20℃

32℃

45℃

60℃

Label the parts of this diagram showing the catalyzed reaction breaking down hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen using the terms (A) enzyme, (B) substrate, and (C) products.

1

In the lock and key model of of enzyme function shown above, what is happening in step 2?

The enzyme is causing new bonds to form between the substrate

The substrates are beginning to bind to the enzyme

The active sites are restructuring the enzyme.

The catalyzed reaction is releasing a product.

Some bacteria live in hot springs. Their cells contain enzymes that function best at temperatures of 70 °C or higher. At the temperature of 50 °C, how will the enzymes in these bacterial cells most likely be affected?

The enzymes will be destroyed by lysosomes.

The enzymes will lose their bond structure and fall apart.

The enzymes will require less energy to function than at 70 °C.

The enzymes will not increase the rate of reactions as much as they would at 70 °C.

As food travels through the digestive system, it is exposed to a variety of pH levels. The stomach has a pH of 2 due to the presence of hydrochloric acid (HCl), and the small intestine has a pH ranging from 7 to 9. HCl converts pepsinogen into pepsin, an enzyme that digests proteins in the stomach. Which of the following most likely happens to pepsin as it enters the small intestine?

It begins to replicate

It becomes inactive

Its shape changes to engulf large proteins

Its activity increases to digest more proteins.

4

Which best describes the role of the esophagus in digestion?

It releases acid and mixes the food.

It aids in absorption of nutrients from food.

It carried food from the mouth to the stomach.

It carries food from the stomach to the intestines.

What does the stomach do for the body?

It chews food.

It breaks food down.

It swallows food.

None of the above

4

What is the primary function of the large intestine?

to digest proteins
