What is the place where the substrate attaches to the enzyme?
The active site of an enzyme is the site where substrates undergo the reaction specfic to that enzyme.
Which hypothesis most likely explains the results at 60C and 70C in relative rate of enzyme action?
The substrate has changed shape because of the high temperature.
What is buffer action?
Chemical Buffer Action regarding Acids and Bases: this means that when an aqueous solution is buffered, adding small amounts of H+ or OH- to the solution will not change the solution's pH.
What are the 3 factors that can change the rate of enzyme reaction?
The first factor is Enzyme concentration or subtrate concentration.The rate of enzyme action is directly proportional to to the availability of enzyme provided the substrate concentration unlimited.Or the rate is directly proportional to the substrate concentration if enzymes are limited but if enzyme concentration is kept constant then upto the certain level the increase in substrate amount will no longer increase the rate of enzyme action. Second factor is temperature.The rate if an enzyme action is always directly proportional to the increase in temperature but upto the specific limit called as optimum temperature. Third factor is the pH value.Enzymes can work efficiently over a narrow range of pH called as Optimum pH.A minor change in pH value can denature the enzyme.
Why are enzymes so specific in their actions?
The enzymes are so specific to their action because they have substrate binding site which has three dimensional configuration which binds to the complementarity three dimensional substrate molecule and hence the enzymes are specific in binding the site and their action In case if the structural configuration of the enzyme changes the substrate is unable to bind at that site and the reaction does not take place
Who does the substrate work on enzyme action?
The substrate is the molecule(s) that an enzyme works on
Is a substrate an enzyme?
NO. The enzyme acts on the substrate. The substrate is the chemical/compound being altered by the action of the enzyme. They are NOT the same.
In an experiment of Pepsin and BAPNA is pepsin the substrate?
Bapna is the substrate that the enzyme, pepsin, is action on.
How does initial concentration of substrate effect enzyme activity?
At low concentration of substrate , rate of enzyme action is directly proportional to conc. of substrate .
What are three factors that affect the action of an enzyme?
pH . Temperature . Substrate's Concentration
Which type of control agent never speeds an enzyme's action?
Substrate analog
What is the place where the substrate attaches to the enzyme?
The active site of an enzyme is the site where substrates undergo the reaction specfic to that enzyme.
What is an action hero?
An action hero is the heroic figure in a fictional work containing action.
Which hypothesis most likely explains the results at 60C and 70C in relative rate of enzyme action?
The substrate has changed shape because of the high temperature.
What is the part in which the conflict builds gradually in intensity?
Rising action
How does increasing enzyme concentration affect the rate of enzyme action when substrate concentration remains constant?
It doesn't
How does increasing substrate concentration affect the rate of enzyme action when the enzyme concentration remains constant?
It doesn't
