What else can I help you with?
Where is the region where enzymes attach to their substrates called?
The active site.
What to enzymes do?
Enzymes attach to things called substrates to help speed up the reaction. Only certain enzymes match the shape of certain substrates.
What do enzymes have to help them fit their substrates the molecules that attach to the enzyme?
Enzymes are proteins that have a very specific structure. The region on the surface of an enzyme that is responsible for binding and converting the subtract into the product is called the active site.
What enzymes have to help them fit their substrates the molecules thet attach to the enzyme?
Im not here to answer your homework questions for Mrs Gerehearts class. LOLOL
What can enzymes react with?
Substrates
How does an enzymes interact with a substance?
Enzymes interact with substrates by binding only with specific substrates. Enzymes will then alter the shape of the substrate in order to induce reaction.
What do enzymes have to help them fit their substrates the molecules that attach to the enzymes?
They actually bind to a substrate as the term reactant is usually used in chemistry. They fit into what we call an active site just like a key will fit into a lock. The key must be the correct key or the reaction will not occur. So the enzyme is said to be specific for that substrate.
Enzymes specially interact with?
Substrates
What are molecules that are acted upon by enzymes called?
These molecules are called substrates.
Are most enzymes much smaller than their substrates?
Yes, most enzymes are smaller in size compared to their substrates. Enzymes typically have specific active sites where they bind with their substrates to catalyze chemical reactions. This specific interaction allows enzymes to facilitate reactions despite being smaller in size.
Is it true or false that Enzymes interact with specific substrates?
True. Enzymes are highly specific in their interactions with substrates. Each enzyme is designed to interact with a particular substrate based on the shape and chemical properties of both the enzyme and the substrate. This specificity allows enzymes to catalyze specific reactions efficiently.
What do enzymes and substrates look like?
Enzymes and substrates are molecules and look like any other molecules. In case of enzymes specifically, they are proteins and so have long chains of amino acids folded into different structures and shapes.
