Name: Enzymes Describe how an enzyme-substrate-complex similar to a lock and key? Label the parts in this enzyme diagram using the vocabulary below! Enzyme, Substrate, Active site, Product (X2) Substrate Enzyme Active Site Product Product Vocabulary Enzyme Catalyst that speeds up chemical reactions Catalyst A substance that speeds up a chemical reaction Optimum Temperature or pH at which the enzyme works best Denature When the active site of an enzyme changes so that the substrate no longer fits. Fill in the blanks of the statements below. Enzymes are proteinsthat reduce the activation energy of a chemical reaction in our bodies AND increases the rate of reaction. Enzymes are necessary in life in order to maintain homeostasis (internal balance).Substrates are the substances that bind to enzymes and products are the substances that are made after the chemical reaction happens.Enzymes have certain conditions that they work their best in. In order for enzymes to work properly, they must be in an environment with an optimal pHand temperature. If an enzyme is NOT in optimal conditions, it can become denatured, which distorts its shape and the substrate can no longer bind to it. True or False: The active site of an enzyme can change its shape to better fit a substrate. True False True or False: Words that end in "-ase" are sugars and words that end in "-ose" are enzymes. True False Identifying sugars and enzymes Drag and drop the names of sugars and enzymes to their correct spots! Sugars Lactose Galactose Maltose Sucrose Enzymes Lactase Amylase Maltase Sucrase Activation Energy The red linerepresents a chemical reaction WITHOUT an enzyme present, and the black line represents a chemical reaction WITHan enzyme present. How does an enzyme effect the chemical reaction?
