- 2BioenergeticsConverting foodstuff to energy (inc. fats, protein & carbs)
- 3EnzymesRegulate speed of reactions
- 4Enzyme catalystLower the energy of activation
- 52 types of enzymes1. Kinases: add phosphate group to the substrate
2. Remove hydrogen from their substrate - 62 factors that alter enzyme activity1. TEMP: Increase temp = increase enzyme activity
2. Ph: change in ph reduces enzyme activity
