It is the region on the surface of the enzyme which binds to the substrate molecule
True or False:

Guanine
Who was the Bills quarterback in 1990?
Jim Kelly
The active site and the substrate complement each other in terms of ________
Shape
What are enzymes?
- globular protein
- acts as biological catalyst and does so by speeding up the rate of a chemical reaction
Define the term: complementary base pairing
Each base will only form hydrogen bonds with one other base - complementary base pairing - (A-T and C-G)
Who's model first suggested semi-conservative replication, AND came up with the 3D structure of DNA
Crick and Watson's
Name any Christopher Nolan directed movie.
Following, Memento, Insomnia, the Dark Knight trilogy, The Prestige, Inception, Interstellar, Dunkirk, Tenet, and Oppenheimer.
What can cause enzymes to stop working?
Acid
Super hot temperatures
Incorrect DNA code
What type of molecule ends with the suffix 'ase'?
Enzymes
Define semi-conservative replication
Each of the DNA molecules produced has one new strand and one strand conserved from the parent molecule
True or False
Two strands of the DNA molecule are separated by breaking the hydrogen bonds between their bases, this is done by DNA polymerase
False.
It's the helicase
What's the rarest common blood type?
AB-
What is the name of the enzyme that breaks down lactose
Lactase
Catalase, Lipase, Pepsin and Amylase are all enzymes you are required to know what are the products of each of these enzymes once enzyme catalysis is completed?
Catalase: Oxygen (award 100 points)
Lipase: Fatty Acids (award 100 points)
Pepsin: Amino acids & short peptides (award 100 points)
Amylase: Maltose (award 100 points)
Where is DNA found in Eukaryotes
Nucleus
Walk through the stages of DNA replication
Stage 1: Helicase unwinds the double helix and separates the two strands by breaking hydrogen bonds.
Stage 2: DNA polymerase links nucleotides together to form new strands, using pre-existing strands as templates
Stage 3: The daughter DNA molecules each rewind into a double helix
What does the term "dinosaur" mean?
Terrible Lizard
What can stop an enzyme from working?
Competitive or noncompetitive inhibitor.
Walk through the process of breaking down lactose
Enzyme lactase is the correct shape and cuts lactose in half, into glucose and galactose
Describe the bonds found in the DNA structure
Two strands linked by hydrogen bonding between their bases

1 - Ostrapod
2 - Root vegetable
3 - Legumes
4 - Fungus
Peanuts are legumes
