Questions and Answers
What is the primary function of enzymes in biological reactions?
What is the primary function of enzymes in biological reactions?
- To catalyze chemical reactions by lowering the activation energy (correct)
- To regenerate ATP from ADP and Pi
- To increase the activation energy of chemical reactions
- To consume reactants and decrease reaction rates
What is the role of the active site in enzyme function?
What is the role of the active site in enzyme function?
- To change the shape of the enzyme to prevent substrate binding
- To hold substrates in place via weak interactions and facilitate catalysis (correct)
- To bind reactants and increase the activation energy
- To release products and increase the free energy
What is induced fit in the context of enzyme function?
What is induced fit in the context of enzyme function?
- The change in shape of the active site to accommodate substrate binding (correct)
- The release of products from the enzyme-substrate complex
- The increase in activation energy required for catalysis
- The binding of multiple substrates to the active site
