What is enzyme affinity?
its how enzymes and substrates are attracted to each other
Why is it necessary for a cell to produce one enzyme molecule for every substrate molecule that needs to be catalyzed?
Because evey substrate needs its own enzyme. Every substance has it depends upon the dissociation constant for the enzyme/substrate interaction. Some enzymes can catalyze reactions for low-affinity substrates, as long as the concentration of substrate molecules is great enough.
What characteristic allows enzymes to function in a specfic way?
Each enzyme has a characteristic shape
What is converted to pyruvate in cellular respiration?
Via the enzyme 'pyruvate kinase' , phosphoenolpyruvate is combined with Adp and Pi to {100%} YIELD pyruvate [pyruvic acid] and Atp. Starting from Glucose, there are at least six separate [because each step "has" its own Enzyme to THOROUGHLY control the yield of the reaction] steps that precede the above.
What is the effect of excess heat or temperature on an enzyme-?
With a lot of heat, the enzyme will be denatured meaning it will lose its shape and therefore its function.
What is enzyme affinity?
its how enzymes and substrates are attracted to each other
USe the word affinity in a sentence?
Language have an affinity with each other.
What regulate enzyme activity in metabolism pathway?
Metabolism refers to the chemical reactions that occur within cells. A hypothetical metabolic pathway is shown below. Reactions occur in a sequence and a specific enzyme catalyzes each step. Intermediates can be used as starting points for other pathways. For example, "C" in the diagram above can be used to produce "D" but can also be used to produce "F".
Name another protein that speeds up chemical reactions during cellular respiration?
There are a variety of enzymes that participate in the process of cellular respiration. Each metabolic step in the pathway is typically facilitated by a specific enzyme that effectively speeds up the rate of reaction.
What is the central theme of biology?
Biology, in its simplest form, is the large branch of science concerned with the study of life. Also it studies the interactions of organism with the abiotic environment and each other.
How does each cellular component interact with each other in a plant?
How does each cellular component interact with each other?
What enzyme speeds up a chemical reaction is known as?
All enzyme's are catalysts for certain chemical reactions. Each enzyme will only work with a certain substrate one analogy being that the enzyme is a key and the substrate is a keyhole, and each enzyme has a unique enzyme.
What is the effect of excess heat or temperature on enzyme?
Each enzyme has its ideal temperature
Why is it necessary for a cell to produce one enzyme molecule for every substrate molecule that needs to be catalyzed?
Because evey substrate needs its own enzyme. Every substance has it depends upon the dissociation constant for the enzyme/substrate interaction. Some enzymes can catalyze reactions for low-affinity substrates, as long as the concentration of substrate molecules is great enough.
What characteristic allows enzymes to function in a specfic way?
Each enzyme has a characteristic shape
Why is respiration rate closely linked to enzyme activity in the cells of an organism?
Cellular respiration is a process that requires oxygen. So when you breathe you take in oxygen to that your mitochondria can use it to create ATP.
What is converted to pyruvate in cellular respiration?
Via the enzyme 'pyruvate kinase' , phosphoenolpyruvate is combined with Adp and Pi to {100%} YIELD pyruvate [pyruvic acid] and Atp. Starting from Glucose, there are at least six separate [because each step "has" its own Enzyme to THOROUGHLY control the yield of the reaction] steps that precede the above.
