Enzymes are a type of molecule made of protein. Enzymes can either build things up, or break things down. All living things cannot survive without the use of enzymes.
Enzymes are very important protein molecules found in all living things.
Cells or organisms can be alive without the work of enzymes
Enzymes are proteins that ____________________________
Enzymes are...
Why are enzymes considered catalysts?

Match the scenarios to the picture that best represents what is happening.
During transcription, the enzyme RNA polymerase, builds mRNA
An enzyme that breaks things apart
During DNA replication, the enzyme helicase, breaks apart the hydrogen bonds that hold the nitrogen base pairs together. This creates 2 single strands of DNA ready that are ready for replication
An enzyme that puts things together
Protease is an enzyme found in our digestive system that helps break down proteins we eat like meat
If the shape of the substrate does not match the shape of the active site, what will happen?
Which of the following is NOT TRUE about enzymes?
The red diagram shows a reaction WITHOUT enzymes, and the green diagram shows a reaction WITH ENZYMES.
Based on the picture what do enzymes do to activation energy?

What do enzymes do to the amount of energy needed to start a reaction, known as activation energy?
What determines if an enzyme can work with a substrate?
Most enzymes end with __________
The area that the substrate fits (blue part) into on the enzyme is called the:
The molecule an enzyme is working on (circled in blue) is called the ________________________
Enzymes speed up reaction rates by lowering the __________________
Each enzyme only has 1 substrate that will fit its active site. What is this called?
Enzymes catalyze reactions by ___________ Activation Energy
