Presentation Transcript
Enzyme Questions • How does an enzyme affect the activation energy of the chemical reaction it catalyses? • Why can a living cell not use large amounts of heat to speed up its chemical reactions? • What is the difference between the lock and key and induced fit models of enzyme action • Describe two industrial uses of enzymes, one in the food-making sector and one in the cleaning sector • Why would a large diaper-cleaning company be interested in a new cleaning powder containing enzymes even though the new powder is slightly more expensive than the regular detergent powder?
