8. “Induced fit” means that when a substrate binds to an enzyme’s active site, (a) it fits perfectly, like a key in a lock (b) the substrate and enzyme undergo conformational changes (c) a site other than the active site undergoes a conformational change (d) the substrate and the enzyme become irreversibly bound to each other (e) c and d

. MAKE CONNECTIONS Considering how enzymes function (see Concept 8.4), explain why vitamins are requiredin very small amounts.
1a-Enzymes serve as catalysts for chemical reactions. What does this mean? Select all that apply. Select one or more: a. Enzymes make reactions more likely to occur. b. Enzymes increase the activation energy. c. Enzymes decrease the free energy (?G) of a reactio d. Enzymes increase the free energy (?G) of a reaction. 1b-When ATP is hydrolysed: Select one: a. The energy will be released as heat if the reaction is not coupled to a substrate, b. The potential energy associated with the resulting ADP molecule increases. c. The terminal phosphate is transferred to a substrate, lowering the potential energy of the substrate d. Water is formed and released as a reaction product.
1. What are activation energy and substrate?  2. What is specificity and active site? 3. What are electrostatic interactions as well as enzyme-substrate complexes?
