How does the lock and key model of enzymes action explain the highly specific way some enzymes select a substrate?

This refers to the hypothesis proposed by Emil Fischer in 1894 but confirmed until the 20th century. Fischer proposed that the specificity of an enzyme (the lock) for its substrate (the key) arises from their geometrically complementary shapes. More specifically, the noncovalent forces through which substrates and other molecules bind to the enzyme are identical in character to the forces that dictate the conformations of the proteins themselves. Both involve van der Waals, electrostatic, hydrogen bonding, and hydrophobic interactions.A substrate-binding site consists of an interaction or cleft on the surface of an enzyme molecule that is complementary in shape to the surface (geometrical complementarity). Molecules that differ in shape of functional group distribution from the substrate cannot productively bind to the enzyme; that is, they cannot form enzyme-substrate complexes that lead to the formation of products.

Explain what it means for a reaction to be endothermic and what would happen to the temperature recorded by a thermometer in an endothermic reaction?

An endothermic reaction absorbs heat energy from the system. In an endothermic reaction a thermometer measuring the reactants and products would register a decrease in temperature.

Explain the difference between substrate and active site?

Substrate is the reactant in which an enzyme reacts out. While the active Site is a special region of the enzyme where the substrate binds forming a temporary enzyme-substrate complex.

What does a enzyme-substrate complex do?

An enzyme-substrate complex is formed when a subtrate molecule binds with the active site of an enzyme that is of similar shape and size. The active site of the enzyme will alter slightly to combine with the substrate molecule. This will put an strain on a particular bond of the substrate molecule, which will lower the activation energy for the reaction as the bond will break more readily. The substrate is then catalysed.

Explain the function of phenol red in the urea broth medium?

phenol red act as the pH indicator. As the substrate urea is split into products, the presence of ammonia caused alkaline environment that cause the phenol red to turn to deep pink. Useful to test Proteus vulgaris.
