Want this question answered?
At low concentration of substrate , rate of enzyme action is directly proportional to conc. of substrate .
Shape of substrate, shape of the enzyme, Competitive, noncompetitive and allosteric inhibitors.
A buffer solution works under the combined principle of common ion effect and Le Chatelier's principle
When an enzyme is saturated the amount of substrate added no longer as an effect on the rate of the reaction.
Ahh... A fine question. The answer: When a substrate acts as an effector there are homotropic effects. The substrate binds to the active site and induces allosteric-like effects.

The use of substrate in Field Effect Transistors is for it to serve as insulating material between the gate and the source.

Temperature, pH, substrate concentration
A substrate doesn't 'know' anything. The interaction of enzymes with substrates depends on random collisions to take effect.
The buffer capacity increases as the concentration of the buffer solution increases and is a maximum when the pH is equal to the same value as the pKa of the weak acid in the buffer. A buffer solution is a good buffer in the pH range that is + or - 1 pH unit of the pKa. Beyond that, buffering capacity is minimal.

Stops substrate from getting to the active site
When an enzyme is saturated the amount of substrate added no longer as an effect on the rate of the reaction.
Salt water slows the dehydration (browning of apples) because it is an acid.
It slows down or even stop the enzymatic activity because it compete the actove site of the enzymes with substrate and its effect can be reduced by concentrating the concentration of substrate or add more subatrate therefore more substrate are compete with the inibitors
