What is enzyme, a substrate and competitive enzyme inhibition?

Biology
1 answer:
Vilka [71]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Enzyme: A biomolecule that speed up the rate of chemical reactions without being used up.

Substrate: A substance or chemical that enter the chemical reaction and is being converted into a new substance  (product).

Competitive enzyme inhibition: Inhibition of enzyme's activity by binding of inhibitor to substrate binding site of the enzyme.

Explanation:

Enzymes are the biomolecules that serve to increase the rate of reactions by lowering down the required activation energy. The enzyme is never used up during reactions.  

Substrates are the chemicals that undergo a chemical change and produce products.  

For example, Glucose is the substrate for hexokinase enzyme and is converted into glucose 6 phosphate (the product).

When the inhibitor competes with the substrate for the binding site on the enzyme and does not allow the substrate to bind to the enzyme, the process is called competitive enzyme inhibition. It can be overcome by increasing the concentration of substrate in the system.

This group of enzymes digests the majority of ingested fat.
Kitty [74]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Undigested fats include all those fatty acid and lipids which do not have the ability to dissolve in water. This inability makes them difficult elements for digestion. All this undigested fat accumulates and reaches the intestine for digestion as globs. Globs are emulsified by the bile salts and are broken down into smaller fat droplets. The smaller fat droplets have large surface area and hence now they can be acted upon by the fat-digesting enzyme pancreatic lipase. Thus, the first set of enzymes that act upon the undigested fats in the intestine are pancreatic lipase

Hence, option A is correct
