HOLE'S HUMAN ANATOMY

1.-Speed up a chemical reaction
2.- Lower the "activation energy" to start a reaction.
3.-Each one have a specific substrate
4.- As reaction occur, enzymes is not consumed by the reaction.

Is a substance on which enzymes acts

Yes, because for each enzyme there is a specific substrate, means that it will act only on a particular substrate.

Are regions of the enzymes that bind specifically to substrates.

Yes, because each substrate is determined by shape of an active site.

Depends in the number of the of enzymes and substrates molecules. Means that the more enzymes and substrates the faster the metabolic reaction.

Are sequences of enzyme-controlled reactions leading to a formation of a product.

If enzymes are not well regulated in any process of the pathway there will no be able to obtain a "Final Product"

It refers that enzymes can become saturated when there is a high substrate concentration at any level of the pathway. In other words if there is an over production of the substrate substance the enzyme can become ineffective.

Negative feedback may control a rate limiting enzyme in a metabolic pathway by inhibiting the "rate of the limiting enzyme" .

*Are non-protein component that make some enzymes active. *They can be either Ions (such as, copper, Iron or Zinc) or coenzymes (small organic molecules)

Coenzymes are small organic molecules. Many coenzymes are composed of vitamins. Thiamine, Riboflavin, niacin, Vit B12.

Heat, Radiation,Electricity, Electricity, Changes in PH."Remember that most enzymes are proteins. Proteins can be denaturated in the presence of these factors. Denaturation means that the enzyme can be altered and become ineffective"

Energy is the capacity to change something. It is the ability to do work. Energy can be changed from one form to another form.
