Question

  1. reactants in an enzyme - catalyzed reaction are called: click to add subtitle 2. which type of macromolecule are enzymes categorized as? click to add subtitle 3. what does the term biological catalyst mean? click to add subtitle 4. identify the parts of the diagram. word bank: enzyme - substrate complex, enzyme, active site, substrate, product

Explanation:

Step1: Define reactants in enzyme - catalyzed reaction

Reactants in an enzyme - catalyzed reaction are called substrates.

Step2: Classify enzymes by macromolecule type

Enzymes are categorized as proteins (a type of macromolecule).

Step3: Define biological catalyst

A biological catalyst (like an enzyme) is a substance that speeds up a biochemical reaction without being consumed in the reaction.

Step4: Identify parts of the diagram

A is the enzyme, B is the active site, C is the substrate, D is the enzyme - substrate complex, E is the product.

Answer:

  1. Substrates
  2. Proteins
  3. A substance that speeds up a biochemical reaction without being consumed in the reaction.
  4. A = Enzyme, B = Active site, C = Substrate, D = Enzyme - substrate complex, E = Product
