What are the two different types of inhibition?
Increasing the temperature excessively - if an enzyme is heated too much (usually around 40°C) the enzyme will become denatured. This will prevent it from working permanently. Decreasing the temperature - decreases enzyme activity Enzyme inhibitors - heavy metals poison enzymes by binding to the active site, preventing the enzyme from binding to the substrate molecule.
What is the name of substance that slows reaction?
The substance that slows down a chemical reaction is an inhibitor. Instead you could also call an inhibitor an anticatalyst.-anticatalyst `antee'katlist1. (chemistry) a substance that retards a chemical reaction or diminishes the activity of a catalyst
What is a catayst?
In chemistry a catalyst is a substance which, when added to other substances, allows them to change while itself remaining unchanged.
What in lemon juice makes it react?
It's a chemical change because the lemon and water cannot be separated by physical means. If it were a physical change, then the lemons and water would not be dissolved.
What is catalist?
A catalyst is a substance that accelerates a chemical reaction. It does this by lowering the activation energy necessary for that reaction to start. A catalyst is not a reactant or a product, and it does not get used up in a reaction. It is simply present with the reactants and the products and it does not change in a reaction. In an equation, it is correct to show the chemical formula for the catalyst in small characters above the "yield" arrow. The opposite of catalyst is inhibitor.
What happens if an inhibitor is irreversible?
Irreversible inhibition refers to the inactivation of an enzyme by a tightly, typically covalent, bound inhibitor. The kinetics for irreversible inhibition do not follow competitive or non-competitive kinetics.

What does a repressor do in the enzymes active site?
Repressors bind to the silencers in the DNA to block the RNA polymerase from binding to the promoter of the gene to reduce gene expression, not really binding to enzymes active sites I think what you meant was "what does an inhibitor do to the enzymes active site"? In which case, it depends on the type of inhibitor. A competitive inhibitor has a structure similar to the substrate, hence would bind to the active site as well, competing with the substrate for the enzyme active sites, decreasing enzymatic activity. A non-competitive inhibitor binds to the allosteric site of the enzyme, causing a structural change in the enzyme active site shape. Hence the enzyme would not be able to bind to the original substrate, so enzymatic activity comes to a halt for the enzymes that are bound by the non-competitive inhibitors
What type of testing consists of introducing a small change to the program and having the effects of that change show up in some test?
Introducing Mutations

What is the substance that slows down or stops a chemical reaction called?
A substance by itself will not slow down a chemical reaction; factors require change, such as cooling the reactants or lowering the concentration, to do so. Adding another chemical or substance that happens to slow a reaction often does so by actually interfering with the reaction and replacing or preventing it outright, and there is not a name for chemicals that do this -?inhibitor?-, since a chemical may do this to one reaction, but be a catalyst to another.Added:decrease surface area/ remove catalyst/ decrease temperature/ decrease concentration/ add inhibitor/ dilute reactants/ separate reactants/
