How do an enzyme and substrate to one another? what is the lock and key model of enzyme function?

Biology
1 answer:
alisha [4.7K]2 years ago

The lock and key model is where the substrate has a specific shape which can fit into the specific shape of the active site of the enzyme, just like how a key has a specific shape which can fit into a specific lock.

In other words, the substrate is complementary (same shape) to a specific enzyme, so the substrate can bind/fit to the enzyme.

Allisa [31]
This has to do with SURFACE TO VOLUME RATIO. For a typical small cell, its surface area to the volume ratio get smaller as the cell grows. This implies that, if the cell grows beyond a certain limit, then the amount of nutrients that entered the cell will be limited, that is , nutrients will not be able to migrate into the cell as needed. To avoid this, the cell has to divide to reduce its surface to volume ratio.<span />

Which of the following are examples of exocytosis?
Alexxx [7]

Exocytosis is basically when your vesicles transport materials out of a cell.

Once the neurotransmitters are synthesised and packaged into vesicles, they are transported until the vesicles reach the cell membrane. Then the 2 bilayers rearrange themselves so that the vesicles are able to fuse with the membrane . Once that occurs, the neurotransmitters will spill out whatever it was carrying.

Two examples of exocytosis are

1) your nerve cells releasing transmitters (explained in the description above)

2)your T cells sending vesicles filled with enzymes to viral infected cells
