Protein molecules that speed up chemical reactions in living things
The specially shaped part where the substrate binds and the reaction happens
The lock
The key
Each enzyme only works with one specific substrate because only the right substrate fits its active site
The active site shape changes permanently and the enzyme stops working
Molecules move slowly, so there are fewer collisions between enzyme and substrate
The best temperature where the enzyme works fastest
The enzyme gets denatured and stops working completely
The pH where the enzyme works best
Active site changes shape and enzyme becomes denatured
Breaks fat into tiny droplets, increasing surface area
pH 7.5-8.0 (alkaline conditions)
Made in the liver, stored in the gall bladder
