What does the shape of an enzyme have to do with how well the enzyme works?
The shape of an enzyme is crucial for its function because it determines the enzyme's specificity and ability to interact with its substrate. The specific shape allows the enzyme to bind to its substrate, facilitating the reaction. Any changes in the enzyme's shape can affect its ability to catalyze the reaction effectively.
What have cancerous cells lost the ability to control?
They have lost their ability to control their growth rate.
Why hydroxylamine reduces ability of enzyme to break down hydrogen peroxide?
Hydroxylamine is a competitive inhibitor. It fits onto the active site(the place where chemical reactions occur on an enzyme) of an enzyme, but it does not react. This causes the hydroxylamine to compete with the normal substrate for the active sites on the enzymes.
What does the name of an enzyme tell us?
The name of an enzyme typically indicates its substrate or the type of reaction it catalyzes. Enzyme names often end in "-ase" to show that it is an enzyme. Additionally, the name may provide information about the enzyme's source or origin, such as "pepsin" from the stomach.
How you can demonstrate that INT reduction is due to an enzyme catalysed process?
By heating the homogenate. proteins are innactivated by heat and enzyme activity is lost
What happen to the enzyme after the enzyme is boiled?
They are said to be denatured.Their tritiary structure is lost.

Which type of enzyme destroys the ability of the transforming principle to function?
DNase enzyme destroys the ability of the transforming principle to function by degrading DNA molecules.
3 variables that can cause an enzyme to lose its ability to function?
Denaturation: changes in pH or temperature can alter the enzyme's structure, rendering it inactive. Inhibition: the presence of inhibitors that bind to the enzyme active site or allosteric site can prevent enzyme-substrate binding. Mutations: changes in the enzyme's genetic sequence can disrupt its function by affecting its ability to bind substrate or catalyze reactions.
What part of the cell has the ability to secrete digestive enzyme?
LYSOSOMES

What is the meaning behind the name "Pepsi"?
The name "Pepsi" comes from the digestive enzyme pepsin and the kola nuts used in the original recipe, symbolizing the drink's ability to aid digestion and its key ingredient.
How you can demonstrate that INT reduction is due to an enzyme catalysed process?
By heating the homogenate. proteins are innactivated by heat and enzyme activity is lost
The ability of an enzyme to catalyze a reaction is not affected by?
The ability of an enzyme to catalyze a reaction is not affected by changes in temperature or pH within a certain range known as the enzyme's optimal conditions. However, extreme changes in temperature, pH, or enzyme concentration can denature the enzyme and affect its activity. Additionally, the substrate concentration can affect the rate of reaction up to a point of saturation, where all enzyme active sites are occupied.
What 3 letters in the enzyme's name tells that it is an enzyme?
The suffix -ase indicates an enzyme, e.g. proteinase, dehydrogenase, hydrogenase, polymerase.
