Term
Active site
Definition
this is a place on the enzyme that causes specific part of a sustrate to change; the place where chemical bonds are formed or broken
Term
How does tempature effect a enzyme
Definition

it determines how fast and enzyme moves

It can change an enzymes shape if it is to hot;
