Fill in the blanks.1. The specific location within an enzyme molecule where the substrate binds is called the:_______ . 2. During an enzymatic reaction, a molecule of binds to the enzyme and is broken down into one or more molecules of , __________which are released. 3. A_____________ is a molecule that can bind to an enzyme and prevent the enzyme from working. 4. Lactose takes years to break down on its own. But if exposed to the protein lactase, the reaction proceeds very quickly, while lactase itself remains unchanged. Lactase is an example of a_____________ . 5. The___________ between an active site and its substrate often strains bonds and helps the reaction proceed.

Respuesta :

Answer:

  1. Active site
  2. Products
  3. Inhibitor
  4. Enzyme
  5. Enzyme-susbtrtae complex

Explanation:

1. Active site: The active site is the region of an enzyme where the substrate gets attached undergo a chemical reaction.

2. Products: Products are the molecules which formed at the end of enzymatic reaction.

3. Inhibitor: A chemical molecule other than enzyme that binds to the active site and prevents enzymatic reaction.

4. Enzyme: It is a biocatalyst which speed up chemical reaction.  

5. Enzyme-substrate complex: A short-lived complex formed when substrate binds to the active site of enzyme.
