Question image

Understand the Problem

The image provides information about enzymes, including their function as catalysts in chemical reactions, the concept of enzyme-substrate complexes, and factors affecting enzyme activity such as temperature and pH. It describes competitive and non-competitive inhibition, and utilizes diagrams to illustrate these concepts along with a specific example of the enzyme peroxidase.

Answer

Details the role of enzymes, inhibition, and factors affecting activity.

The image provides detailed notes about enzymes as catalysts, enzyme-substrate complex, factors affecting enzyme activity, and inhibition types.

Answer for screen readers

The image provides detailed notes about enzymes as catalysts, enzyme-substrate complex, factors affecting enzyme activity, and inhibition types.

More Information

Enzymes function as catalysts in biological reactions, forming complexes with substrates. Two main types of inhibition, competitive and non-competitive, affect enzyme function. Temperature and pH are critical factors in enzyme activity, with enzymes denaturing outside optimal ranges.

Tips

Common mistake is assuming that enzymes are consumed in reactions—they are not.
