Enzymes 1
This is the biomolecule that makes enzymes
What are proteins?
This refers to something that can speed up a chemical reaction.
What is a catalyst?
The cell membrane is composed mostly of this biomolcule.
What are lipids?
These biomolecules allow large and charged particles to pass through the cell membrane.
What are proteins?
What is a nucleus?
These to parts fit each other at the active site to catalyze a reaction.
What are enzymes and substrates?
Enzymes end in this.
What is -ase?
This cell transport goes with the concentration gradient and does not use energy.
What is passive transport?
This cell transport goes with the concentration gradient and does use energy.
Active Transport
Prokaryotes lack these features. This is why they are simple.
The part of the enzyme-substrate complex that changes after the reaction.
What is the substrate? (also product)
True or false: Enzymes can continue to catalyze reactions even after the substrates are gone.
False.
The type of osmosis where the water leaves the cell.
What is hypertonic?
The type of osmosis that causes all the water to enter the cell.
What is hypotonic?
The multicellular cell.
What is a Eukaryote?
This happens when an enzyme becomes too hot or too acidic.
What is denaturization?
These block the enzyme from connecting to the substrate.
What's an inhibitor?
These are examples of passive transport.
What is diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis?
This is the term for a membrane that allows certain things to pass in and out of it.
What is semi-permiable?
The type of DNA in prokaryotic cells.
What is free-floating DNA?
State the enzyme chant with hand motions.
Enzymes are catalysts that bind to specific substrates. They speed up chemical reaction rates by lowering activation energy.
One of these is classified as an enzyme:
Glucose
Deoxyribonucleic Acid
Triglyceride
Lactase
What is Lactase?
Endocytosis and exocytosis
You have a balloon filled with solution sitting in a beaker of solution. The balloon has 63% water, and the beaker holds 66% water. The water will move in a certain direction. Describe the type of response.
What is hypotonic?
The organelles that are both prokaryotes and eukaryotes have in common.
What are ribosomes, cytoplasm, and a cell membrane?
