Term
| What is the relationship between enzymes and energy? |
|
Definition
| Enzymes help substrates form or break bonds and allows reactions to happen with less activation energy. |
|
|
Term
| Why don't enzymes work the same at different temperatures? |
|
Definition
| They get denatured at high temperatures, and slow down at low temperatures. |
|
|
Term
| How do vitamins help enzymes? |
|
Definition
| They help speed up enzymes by bonding with the substrate |
|
|
Term
| How does substrate concentration affect enzyme activity? |
|
Definition
| The higher the substrate concentration, the faster the enzyme will work, up to a point. |

Term
| What reaction is toothpickase catalyzing? |
|
Definition
| the breaking of the toothpicks |
|
|
Term
| In the enzyme lab, what was the negative control? |
|

|
Definition
|
|
Term
| What was the dependent variable in the enzyme lab? |
|
Definition
| the amount of amylase activity, shown by color |
|
|
Term
| In which temperature did amylase work best? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| In which range of temperatures did amylase function slowly? |
|
Definition
| 10-22 degrees C, 60-80 degrees C |
|
|
Term
| In which range of temperatures did amylase not function? |
|
Definition
| less than 5 degrees C and greater than 80 degrees C |
|
|
Term
| What causes proteins to be denatured? |
|
Definition
| When they are exposed to high temperatures or extreme pH |
|
|
Term
| Why was the marble at the bottom in the second beaker of gelatin which contained Bromelain? |
|
Definition
| The proteins were broken down into animo acids. |
|
|
Term

Definition
|
|
Term
| What color is Lugol's reagent without starch? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| What color will Lugol's reagent turn when mixed with gelatin? |
|
Definition
|
|

|
Definition
|
|
Term
| In humans, how will enzymes be affected by a fever? |
|
Definition
| they will be less effective because a fever makes the body warmer than 37 degrees celsius. |
|
|
Term
| Why do organisms lower their body temperature when they hibernate? |
|
Definition
| It slows down the enzymes in their bodies so then can survive for longer on less food. |
|
