Question

  1. choose the best answer.

the active site on an enzyme will be shaped to fit a specific _____.
○ glycogen
○ red blood cell
○ lysomere
○ substrate

  1. choose the best answer.

once an enzyme binds to a substrate, the enzyme interacts with the substrate to _____.
○ make a bond
○ strengthen its bonds
○ weaken its bonds

  1. choose the best answer.

an enzyme is a special type of _____ biomolecule.
○ lipid
○ nucleic acid

Explanation:

Response
Question 6
Brief Explanations

Enzymes have active sites that are specific to their substrates (the molecules they act on). Glycogen is a polysaccharide, red blood cells are cells, and lysomere (likely a typo, maybe lysosome) is an organelle—none are what an enzyme's active site fits. So the correct answer is substrate.

Brief Explanations

When an enzyme binds to a substrate, it interacts to weaken the substrate's bonds, lowering activation energy for a reaction (like breaking or rearranging). Enzymes don't typically make bonds or strengthen them in this context; they facilitate reactions by weakening bonds.

Answer:

D. substrate (assuming the options are labeled A - D as glycogen, red blood cell, lysomere, substrate)
