Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The validation of the substance, sucrose as an enzyme has to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The aspects for the naming of enzymes are given below.
- • The suffix “ase” helps in identification of a substance as an enzyme. For few of the enzymes, the suffix “in” is also used.
- • The type of reaction that the enzyme catalyzes is identified by the prefix.
- • The substrate can also be identified by the suffix of the enzyme.
(b)
Interpretation:
The validation of the substance, lactase as an enzyme has to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The aspects for the naming of enzymes are given below.
- • The suffix “ase” helps in identification of a substance as an enzyme. For few of the enzymes, the suffix “in” is also used.
- • The type of reaction that the enzyme catalyzes is identified by the prefix.
- • The substrate can also be identified by the suffix of the enzyme.
(c)
Interpretation:
The validation of the substance, fructose oxidase as an enzyme has to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The aspects for the naming of enzymes are given below.
- • The suffix “ase” helps in identification of a substance as an enzyme. For few of the enzymes, the suffix “in” is also used.
- • The type of reaction that the enzyme catalyzes is identified by the prefix.
- • The substrate can also be identified by the suffix of the enzyme.
(d)
Interpretation:
The validation of the substance, creatine kinase as an enzyme has to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The aspects for the naming of enzymes are given below.
- • The suffix “ase” helps in identification of a substance as an enzyme. For few of the enzymes, the suffix “in” is also used.
