Question
fill in the blank 6 points
the enzyme and substrate fit together precisely like a lock and key, the place where they fit together is called the answer. if the protein that makes up the enzyme gets damaged, it has been answer. this means that the reaction will answer.
passive site speed up active site remain constant slow down or stop denatured unravelled
Brief Explanations
- First blank: Enzymes have a specific region called the active site where the substrate binds, similar to a lock - key mechanism.
- Second blank: When the protein (enzyme) is damaged, it is said to be denatured. Denaturation changes the enzyme's shape.
- Third blank: If the enzyme is denatured (damaged), it can no longer bind to the substrate effectively, so the reaction will slow down or stop.
