Summary Introduction
To determine:
The three factors that influence the activity of enzymes.
Introduction:
Enzymes are molecules that are proteinaceous in nature and play a role in enhancing the rate of biochemical reactions. The enzymes are very specific; they only act in a certain set of conditions. The enzymes decrease the energy of activation and help to increase the

- Regarding the physical condition (characteristics of the solution/environment) in which an enzyme finds itself: sometimes enzymes are most active at a certain level and still active but to a lesser degree at a level above or below the optimal level. Describe the likely reason for the enzyme’s decrement in function at levels other than the optimal level?arrow_forwardEnzymes are biological catalysts that fulfill the following general reaction mechanism: E+S [ES] [EP] E + P Where E is enzyme, S is substrate, and P is product. Briefly describe how an enzyme is able to speed of the rate of a reaction:arrow_forwardMost enzymes are very sensitive to even small changes in pH. Explain why a slight shift to more basic or more acidic condition results in a dramatic decrease in enzyme activity. *arrow_forward
