An enzyme catalyzes the reaction by changing the shapes of the molecules that stress the bonds holding together. Therefore the bond is weaker and will break down faster.

How is a specific enzyme able to catalyze a specific reaction in the cytoplasm of a single cell with many different enzymes?
An enzyme binds to a specific substrate (reactant) for the reaction catalyzed.
The ability of an enzyme to catalyze a reaction is not affected by?
excess cofactor
Relate the shape of an enzyme to its ability to help in a chemical reaction?
The shape of an enzyme will determine its ability to help in a chemical reaction. These proteins that will break down substance in the body and catalyze chemical reactions.
What is the name of the enzyme that doesn't change during a reaction?
Enzymes are organic molecules that are highly specific catylists for biological chemical reactions. Enzymes are not permanently changed by the reactions that they catalyze, although the may transiently change shape a little during the reaction. At the end of the reaction, the enzyme is the same shape that it was at the beginning.
Each enzyme produced by the body is?
Biological catalysts. They alter the speed of a reaction without undergoing permanent changes themselves.
What is the main thing an enzyme does to catalyze a reaction?
The main thing that an enzyme does to catalyze a reaction, is to lower the energy of reaction.
What is the main thing an enzyme does catalyze a reaction?

What a protein that can catalyze a chemical reaction?
enzyme
What is a protein that catalyze a chemical reaction?
enzyme
A protein that can catalyze a chemical reaction?
enzyme
An enzyme will continue to catalyze a reaction until what happens?
Until the reactants run out
Is an enzyme used up by the reaction it catalyze?
Enzymes are highly efficient catalysts, and only small quantities are needed to catalyze the reaction of relatively large amounts of materials.
How is a specific enzyme able to catalyze a specific reaction in the cytoplasm of a single cell with many different enzymes?
An enzyme binds to a specific substrate (reactant) for the reaction catalyzed.
The ability of an enzyme to catalyze a reaction is not affected by?
excess cofactor
What reaction does the enzyme hexokinase catalyze?
First step of glycolysis- the phosphorylation of glucose to glucose-6-phosphate.
What enzyme is produced in the stomach?
specific-meaning it is only able to catalyze a reaction with a certain molecule.
What is the Difference between enzyme and regulatory enzyme?
An enzyme is one kind of protein that can catalyze a specific reaction whereas a regulatory enzyme is the enzyme which can regulate a series of reaction which undergo in the living organism. So we can say every enzyme is not a regulatory one but the regulatory enzymes are obviously a special kind of enzyme.
