The system in which enzymes work is often referred to as the 'lock and key' system
Its where the enzyme and the substrate lock together.
The substrate then unlocks into small properties
Leaving the enzyme unharmed but the substrate having formed into its products
Below is the formula
enzyme + substrate ↔ enzyme- substrate complex ↔ enzyme + products
[ E ] + [ S ] ↔ [ ES ] ↔ [ E ] + [ P ]

What do vitamins often function as?
Co-enzymes. Needed to complete the enzymes metabolic processes.
What is the function of enzymes inliving cells?
Enzymes are biocatalysts. They are used as catalysts for biochemical reactions in living cells.
If your body temperature is low how will the enzymes work?
Enzymes require certain temperatures to function. They become denatured if the temperature is too high or too low. If an enzyme is denatured, it can no longer function. Therefore, if your body temperature is too low, the enzymes will become denatured and cease to function. The process of denaturation is on a continuum, however. If the temperature is slightly lower than normal, but not too low, the enzymes will still function, but at a lower rate.
Where will the enzyme need to be transported in order to perform its function?
enzymes
Their matrix contains enzymes that function in cellular respiration?
mitochondria
Denatured enzymes are the same as?
Denatured enzymes are the same as enzymes that can no longer function.
What does it mean that enzymes are not changed when they perform their function?
It means that enzymes are catalysts.
Would enzymes function in a person's cells?
Yes, cells contain many enzymes which are able to function inside the cell.
What is the function of coenzymes?
Molecules required for the catalytic function of enzymes
What is the function of oxidoreductase enzymes?
its for cellulose and lignin degradation
What enzymes act inside the small intestine and what are the function of these enzymes?
enzymes are protien catalysts that spreed up digestion
What determine an enzymes function and how many function does one enzyme have?
two
What is the function of microbody?
contains enzymes and other substances
If enzymes do not function they are called?
Enzymes that become no longer functional are referred to as being "denatured".
What do vitamins often function as?
Co-enzymes. Needed to complete the enzymes metabolic processes.
Are enzymes changed during their function?
foods
What is the function of oxidoreductase?
oxygen redusing enzymes
