What is the effect of pH upon the relative enzyme activity?
JhanJaysonGolosino
Different enzymes work best at different pH. This is refered to as the ideal pH for the enzyme.
For example, the digestive enzyme trypsin works best at an acidic pH while alkaline phosphatase works best at a basic pH.
Therefore, enzyme activity varies with pH and this variation depends on the enzyme being studied

What is the substance an enzyme act upon called?
the substance that an enzyme acts upon is subtrate
What is bigger - an enzyme or the substrate that it acts upon?
The Enzyme - in all Imaginable Cases!
A specific reactant an enzyme acts upon is called the a catalyst b sucrase c active site d substrate?
D. substrate (a specific reactant acted upon by an enzyme is called the enzyme's substrate.)
What is substrate molecule?
Is a molecule upon which an enzyme acts. e.g. hydrogen peroxide is the substrate for the enzyme catalase
Effect of pulping liver upon the reaction with hydrogen peroxide?
It releases the peroxidase in the liver cells.
What is the substance an enzyme act upon called?
the substance that an enzyme acts upon is subtrate
What effect does the lock and key process have on the enzyme structure?
Easily Explained thusly: When the key is in the lock the Enzyme has one Structure, and when the key is not in the lock the Enzyme has another Structure. Note that the presence of a key may either activate or deactivate an Enzyme, depending upon the conditions.
The substance acted upon by an enzyme is called its?
A substrate is the substance acted upon by an enzyme. The enzyme substrate complex is when an enzyme molecule combines with its substrates.
Substance that enzyme act upon?
They are known as reactants or substrates.
Optimal activity of an enzyme depends upon its Primary structure or Secondary structure or tertiary structure or amino acid sequence or disulphide bridge stability?
Primary structure
What is bigger - an enzyme or the substrate that it acts upon?
The Enzyme - in all Imaginable Cases!
What is the enzyme called that acts upon the substrate pepsin?
food acted up on by the enzyme for pepsin
A specific reactant an enzyme acts upon is called the a catalyst b sucrase c active site d substrate?
D. substrate (a specific reactant acted upon by an enzyme is called the enzyme's substrate.)
How do you speed up an enzyme reaction?
By adding more substance that the enzyme is acting upon, it forces that enzyme to be faster in order to complete the process.
What is substrate molecule?
Is a molecule upon which an enzyme acts. e.g. hydrogen peroxide is the substrate for the enzyme catalase
Specific reactant an enzyme acts upon is?
substrate
How temperature and pH affect enzyme activity?
Temperature And Enzyme Activity: Increasing temperature means the molecules gain more kinetic energy and move faster resulting in more chances of successful collisions of enzymes and substrates forming enzyme-substrate molecules.
