Exploring Enzyme Function and Inhibition

To consume reactants

To store energy

To speed up reactions without being consumed

To create new reactants

Catalase

Sucrase

Lipase

Amylase

Oxygen and glucose

Hydrogen and oxygen

Water and oxygen

Water and carbon dioxide

It is where the substrate molecules bind

It binds to inhibitors to prevent reaction

It stores the enzyme until needed

It repels the substrate molecules

An inhibitor competes with the substrate for the active site

The enzyme competes with the substrate to stop the reaction

Substrates compete with each other to bind to the enzyme

Enzymes compete with each other to bind to substrates

Thiamine

Heme

Glucose

Fructose

They are inorganic molecules that bind to enzymes

They prevent the enzyme from binding to substrates

They decrease the enzyme's activity

They are organic molecules that assist enzymes

It involves the substrate binding directly to the active site

It changes the shape of the enzyme's active site

It only occurs in prokaryotic cells

It speeds up the reaction

The pH of the solution

The concentration of the enzyme

The temperature of the solution

The time it takes for disks to float

Observing the color change in the solution

Measuring the amount of products formed

Calculating the weight of the reactants

Counting the number of substrate molecules
