    A catalyst is very similar to track spikes. Spikes increase a runner’s speed, as a catalyst speeds up the chemical reaction time in a plant. Neither the catalyst nor shoes are changed in these actions. Enzymes are macromolecules that act like catalysts. A catalyst will lower the activation energy within a seed, which will allow the reaction to go quicker.…

    Enzymes bind to their substrates at a specific point called the active site. The regulation of enzyme activities mostly involves the inhibition of substrates, and this inhibition is divided into two types. The first type, competitive inhibitor, binds the inhibitors at the active site, blocking the substrates from entering. The second type is the noncompetitive inhibitor where the inhibitor binds to the opposite side of the active site, changing the shape of the enzyme, and stops it from being active.…

    catalysts, speeding up reactions that would occur too slowly to be of any usefulness to an organism. Although in organisms, it is not necessary for the reactions to be at maximum rate at all times. Enzymes interact with other molecules to produce a stable system in which the products are made when they are needed in the exact amount. An enzyme lowers the activation energy of a reaction so its easier to proceed. Enzymes are specific to which substrates it binds with to the active site.(AS biology, 2008). There is a lock and key hypothesis, as shown in diagram 1:…
