| WHAT ARE ORGANIC CATALYSTS MADE OF PROTEIN THAT HELP CHEMICAL REACTIONS TO TAKE PLACE | ENZYMES |
| A substance which speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction without entering the reaction itself | CATALYST |
| END IN ASE | MOST ENZYMES |
| The substance being worked on is called the? | SUBSTRATE |
| The association between the enzyme and substrate is called the? | ENZYME - SUBSTRATE COMPLEX |
| TRUE OR FALSE - THE ENZYME CHANGES AFTER A CHEMICAL REACTION TAKES PLACE | FALSE!!! THE ENZYME DOES NOT CHANGE |
| TWO TYPES OF ENZYME ACTION INCLUDE? | SYNTHESIS AND HYDROLYSIS |
| The pockets in an enzyme where the substrate fits into is called? | The Active Site |
| The molecule the enzyme acts upon or changes | Substrate |
| “ Lock and Key Theory" | Each enzyme is specific for one and only one substrate |
| When there is a fixed amount of enzyme and an excess of substrate molecules – the rate of reaction will increase to a point and then | level off |
| Name two factors that influence the rate of enzyme action | temperature, and pH |
| When temperatures get too hot enzymes become _______ | DENATURED |
