Carbon is the only element that can form so many different compounds because each carbon atom can form four chemical bonds to other atoms, and because the carbon atom is just the right, small size to fit in comfortably as parts of very large molecules.
Normally when one studies an enzymatic reaction you need to do the following:
1. The initial rate of the reaction - or initial velocity - Vo - (when you've just combined the enzyme and the substrate) - you measure the amount of product made per unit time right at the beginning of the reaction.
2. You have to do this for each concentration of substrate - this would be a range of substrate concentrations.
3. You plot these on a graph with (substrate, Vo) as your (x,y)
What you will see is a graph that rises from 0,0 and eventually plateaus.
The plateau indicates that the enzyme is saturated with the substrate and is working as fast as it can. This is the maximum velocity or Vmax.

Endocytosis is the process where a cell imports large things into the cell. All forms of endocytosis are active, meaning the cell expends ATP while performing this process. Specifically, a style of endocytosis called phagocytosis involves a cell surrounding the target material with its cell membrane and encloses it while bringing it into the cell. This enclosed membrane bound material then pinches off into a spherical 'vesicle'. An example of this can be a cell importing a protein into its cellular space.
