QUESTION 1

Enzymes (Check all that apply.)

		are inorganic molecules.
		act as catalysts.
		have a special shape that controls their function
		are specific for their substrates.

QUESTION 2

Enzymes are consumed in chemical reactions and must therefore be replenished True False

QUESTION 3

Which of the following best describe what enzymes are and how they are used?

		catalytic proteins that are efficient in initiating chemical reactions by lowering the activation energy.
		catalytic lipids that are efficient in initiating chemical reactions by lowering the activation energy.
		intermediate carriers of electrons that are required for, or increase the rate of, catalysis.
		organic substances that increase the activation energy.

QUESTION 4

Altering the three-dimensional structure of an enzyme might

		change the amount of energy needed for a reaction.
		allow the reaction to occur at a faster rate.
		change the type of substrate that binds the enzyme's active site
		prevent the substrate from binding the enzyme's active site.

QUESTION 5

Imagine that you are observing an enzyme-catalyzed reaction in lab. Every time you add more enzyme, the reaction rate increases proportionally until the reaction rate suddenly levels off. No other chemicals were added, and no modifications were made in the experimental setting. Why do you think the reactionn rate stopped increasing?
@ As a reaction rate increases, eventually all available substrate molecules will be bound to enzymes, or all available enzymes will be bound to substrate. The reaction will be substrate-limited or enzyme-limited. When all available molecules of either enzyme or substrate are bound, saturation occurs, and at this point the reaction rate will level off. To keep increasing the reaction rate, the levels of available substrate or enzyme must increase. In the above example, additional enzyme was added, so substrate must have been the limiting factor.

		The molecules of substrate noncompetitively inhibited the enzyme.
		The enzymes were denatured.
		The molecules of substrate were all bound to enzyme.
		The molecules of product competitively inhibited the substrate.

QUESTION 6

As the amount of substrate is increased in an enzyme-substrate reaction,

		the amount of enzyme also increases proportionally.
		enzymes work faster.
		the amount of product increases.
		enzymes become denatured faster.

QUESTION 7

QUESTION 9

The pH can affect the activity of an enzyme controlled reaction by (Check all that apply)

		affecting hydrogen bonding.
		changing the shape of the enzymes active site.

QUESTION 10

The two data curves on the figure illustrate that

		optimal temperature ranges are not the same for all enzymes
		pH is not related to enzyme efficiency

QUESTION 16

Enzyme activity can be determined in the following ways:

		by measuring how much of the substrate is consumed
		determining when the amount of substrate is equal to the amount of product
		by measuring how much of the enzyme is consumed
		by measuring how much of the product is produced

QUESTION 17

As the concentration of an enzyme increases for a given substrate,

		the reaction rate increases similarly.
		the turnover number decreases at the same rate that the enzyme concentration increases.
		the rate of the reaction decreases to a point
		the reaction stops.

QUESTION 18
