Definition Keyword % Correct
Indented area on the surface of an enzyme molecule, with a shape that is complementary to the shape of the substrate molecule Active site
94%
Chemical that speeds up the rate of reaction and remains uncharged and reusable at the end of the reaction Catalyst
78%
Complex formed by temporary binding of enzyme and substrate molecules during an enzyme-catalysed reaction Enzyme-substrate complex
59%
Molecule produced from substrate molecules, by an enzyme-catalysed reaction Product
59%
Molecule that is altered by an enzyme-catalysed reaction Substrate
55%
Outside the cell Extracellular
53%
Inside the cell Intracellular
51%
A substance that reduces or stops a reaction Inhibitor
48%
The chemical reactions that take place inside living cells and organisms Metabolism
44%
Where the inhibitor molecule has a similar shape to that of the substrate molecule and completes with the substrate for the enzyme's active site. It blocks the active site and prevents formation of enzyme-substrate complexes. Competitive inhibition
28%
Where the competitor molecule attaches to a part of the enzyme but not the active site. This changes the shape of the active site, which prevents ES complexes forming, as the enzyme active site is no longer complementary in shape to the substrate molecule Non-competitive inhibition
26%
Enzyme molecule with product molecule(s) in its active site Enzyme-product complex
19%
Number of molecules per unit volume Concentration
17%
Temperature coefficient Q10
15%
A substrate that has to be present to ensure that an enzyme-catalysed reaction takes place at the appropriate rate Cofactor
