  1. 3. The process of breaking down large molecules into smaller ones. As the bonds break, free energy is released.
  2. 7. A reaction that absorbs free energy from the surroundings.
  3. 8. The active site as having a set shape. The substrate molecules fit perfectly into active site, like a key in a lock.
  4. 9. A flexible active site that changes shape, or conforms, to the substrate as they bond together.
  5. 11. Inhibitors are molecules that inhibit the activity of enzymes.
  6. 12. Coenzymes, also known as organic cofactors, are non-protein molecules that bind to enzymes to help them function properly.

  1. 1. The energy required to start any reaction
  2. 2. Products are the new substances formed at the end of the reaction.
  3. 4. The process of making large molecules from smaller ones. Free energy is absorbed from the surroundings to build new chemical bonds.
  4. 5. Starting materials (substrates) in a chemical reaction that undergo change.
  5. 6. The sum of all the chemical reactions occurring in a cell or a organism.
  6. 10. A reaction that has a net release of free energy.
