1The main reason why rate of enzyme action increases with temperature initially is...
- AThe kinetic energy of enzymes and substrates increases
- BTime passing, allowing more collisions to occur
- CThe enzymes become denatured
- DMore substrate is produced, therefore the enzymes become saturated
2The level of a condition at which enzymes work best is called the [blank_start]optimum[blank_end] temperature/pH/etc.
- Aoptimum
3Why do enzymes work less effectively in extreme pH, or in very high temperatures?
- ApH far from optimum affects bond interactions in the enzyme.
- BHigh temperatures provide enough kinetic energy to break bonds in the enzyme protein structure.
- CEnzymes become denatured.
- DSubstrates have very high kinetic energy and collide too quickly with enzymes.
- EEnzyme tertiary structure changes.
- FThe induced-fit hypothesis says that the active site tertiary structure remains constant when 'not occupied'.
4The optimum temperature for enzymes in the human body is 37 degrees C.
- ATrue
- BFalse
5Rate of reaction is proportional to..
- AThe number of ESCs formed per second.
- BThe number of enzyme proteins that become denatured by second.
- CThe optimum temperature for a specific enzyme.
- DThe solubility of ESCs formed in the reaction process.
6There is a [blank_start]positive[blank_end] correlation between substrate concentration and initial rate of reaction. However, past a point, the graph [blank_start]plateaus[blank_end]. This is because of [blank_start]a limiting factor[blank_end], which is the [blank_start]enzyme concentration[blank_end]. At this point and beyond, the enzymes are said to be [blank_start]saturated[blank_end].
- Apositive
- Bnegative
- Cinverse
- Dtrigonometric
- Eplateaus
- Fgoes the opposite way
- Gbecomes inverted
- Hdecreases
- Ia limiting factor
- Jextreme pH
- Kextreme temperature
- Ldenatured enzymes
- Menzyme concentration
- Nsubstrate concentration
- Oenzyme's optimum temperature
- Pspace available in the cell
- Qsaturated
- Rdenatured
- Sacidic
- Tdissolved
7Cells create one set of enzymes that last for the duration of the cell's life.
- ATrue
- BFalse
8Inhibitors that [blank_start]block[blank_end] the [blank_start]active site[blank_end] of enzymes are [blank_start]competitive[blank_end], whereas inhibitors that [blank_start]change[blank_end] the [blank_start]shape[blank_end] of enzymes are [blank_start]non-competitive[blank_end].
- Ablock
- Bacidify
- Cexpose
- Dsignal
- Eactive site
- Ftertiary structure
- Gsynthesis
- Hdegradation
- Icompetitive
- Jnon-competitive
- Kchange
- Lblock
- Mexpose
- Nprecipitate
- Oshape
- Pprimary structure
- Qkinetic energy

9Label the enzyme inhibition diagram.

- ANormal enzyme activity
- BCompetitive inhibitor
- CNon-competitive inhibitor
- DNormal enzyme activity
- ECompetitive inhibitor
- FNon-competitive inhibitor
- GNormal enzyme activity
- HCompetitive inhibitor
- INon-competitive inhibitor
10Which of the following statements are true about end product inhibition? Select all that apply.
- AMost metabolic reactions consist of one step.
- BAn end product inhibits an enzyme that is responsible for its synthesis.
- COne product of the metabolic pathway inhibits the overall pathway.
- DThe end product accumulates.
11[blank_start]Potassium cyanide[blank_end] is an inhibitor that is also a metabolic poison. In the body, it forms [blank_start]hydrogen cyanide[blank_end]. The [blank_start]cyanide[blank_end] ions bind [blank_start]irreversibly[blank_end] to [blank_start]mitochondria[blank_end] and prevent normal [blank_start]aerobic respiration[blank_end].
Snake venom contains [blank_start]acetylcholinesterase[blank_end], which prevents the breakdown of [blank_start]acetylcholine[blank_end], thereby preventing muscle relaxation.
Various therapeutic drugs are available that work by inhibiting enzymes such as [blank_start]ACE[blank_end], [blank_start]proteases[blank_end], and [blank_start]ATPase[blank_end].- APotassium cyanide
