Chapter 5, Problem 10MC
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The energy which is required in the starting of any reaction is known as activation energy. In this, the enzyme is used which acts as protein and binds to a substrate. Mostly the activation energy is positive and it is a type of minimum energy required for the

Students have asked these similar questions
When an enzymatic reaction is in progress, do you expect to see happen to the amount of substrate?
A
It will increase as the reaction proceeds.
B
It will decrease as the reaction proceeds.
C
The amount will not change as reaction proceeds.
D
It is not possible to predict what will happen to it as the reaction proceeds.
Enzymes (a) speed up reactions that would otherwise occur much more slowly. (b) spur reactions that would otherwise never occur. (c) provide energy for anabolic but not catabolic pathways. (d) are consumed during the reactions they catalyze.
