Explanation:

High temperatures or changes in pH can denature an enzyme, causing it to lose its shape and activity.

Enzymes speed up chemical reactions by lowering the activation energy which allows the reaction to proceed much more quickly.

An enzyme is considered a(n) catalyst because it speeds up a chemical reaction without being used up.

The induced fit between an active site and its substrate often strains bonds and helps the reaction proceed.

A(n) inhibitor is a molecule that can bind to an enzyme and prevent the enzyme from working.

During an enzymatic reaction, a molecule of substrate binds to the enzyme and is broken down into one or more molecules of product which are released.

The specific location within an enzyme molecule where the substrate binds is called the active site.

Lactose takes years to break down on its own. But if exposed to the protein lactase, the reaction proceeds very quickly, while lactase itself remains unchanged. Lactase is an example of a(n) enzyme.
