    Unit One EOC Review: Molecule That Contains Carbon and Is Important To Life

    Uploaded by

    sushant
    This document provides a review of key concepts about organic molecules and enzymes. It defines organic molecules as those containing carbon that are important for life. The four main types of organic molecules - carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids - are identified along with their subunits and functions. Examples are given of how various molecules like starch, hemoglobin and DNA are classified. The parts of an enzyme-substrate complex and how enzymes work by lowering activation energy are described. Factors that can impact enzyme function such as temperature and pH are also summarized.

    5. What is the function of an enzyme? What is another name for an enzyme? Speed up chemical
    reactions by lowering the activation energy, catalyst
    q.
    6. Are enzymes reusable? Why is that important? Yes, so we can use them over and over and we
    dont have to start from scratch.
    7. Why do we describe enzymes as a lock-and-key? Only one type of substrate will fit a specific
    enzyme
    8. What is a denatured enzyme? What factors can cause an enzyme to become denatured? Enzyme
    that doesnt work anymore, change in temperature or pH
    9. What is the active site of an enzyme? What is the substrate? Where it fits, what goes in
    10. What can be the result of a missing or defective enzyme? The reaction will not occur
    11. Do enzymes raise or lower the activation energy? lower
