This document provides an answer sheet for an exam on enzymes. It covers several key points about enzymes:
1) Enzymes act as catalysts in the human body and are required for cellular reactions to occur millions of times faster than uncatalyzed reactions.
2) Enzyme nomenclature provides information about the reaction an enzyme catalyzes.
3) Several factors can affect enzyme activity, including temperature, pH levels, and the presence of inhibitors or activators.
The document also lists several examples of enzyme uses in medical testing and treatments.

21.1 Enzyme acts as a catalyst in the human body 21.20 21.2 Because almost every reaction in a cell requires a. hydrolases its own specific enzyme. Enzymes cause cellular b. isomerase reactions to occur millions of times faster than c. oxidoreductases corresponding uncatalyzed reactions d. ligases 21.6 21.22 a. conjugated enzyme a. isomerase b. simple enzyme b. transferase c. conjugated c. hydrolase d. conjugated enzyme d. hydrolase 21.7 Cofactor can either be organic or inorganic 21. 24 while coenzyme is organic only. a. Decarboxylase 21.8 Cofactors can either be organic or inorganic. b. Dehydrogenase Therefore, some of the cofactors are inorganic and c. Dehydrogenase some are organic. A coenzyme is a cofactor that is d. Protease organic. III.Factors That Affect Enzyme Activity II. Enzyme Nomenclature (Section 21.3) (Section 21.6)
21.11 21.43 When the temperature increases, the rate of
a. Yes reaction increases. However, when the temperature b. No reaches the optimum temperature c. Yes for the enzyme, denaturation occurs lowering the rate d. Yes of reaction. 21.12 21.44 Optimum temperature is the temperature at a. No which an enzyme exhibits maximum activity. b. Yes 21.45 The number of acidic and basic amino acids c. Yes present in enzymes is different. d. Yes 21.46 The charge on acidic and basic amino acids 21.13 located at the active site of the enzyme depends on pH. a. adds carboxylate group to pyruvate Small changes in pH can result to denaturation and b. removal of hydrogen from alcohol subsequent loss of catalytic activity. c. reduces L-amino acid d. catalyzes the hydrolysis of maltose IV. Uses of Enzymes (Section 21.11) 21.14 a. oxidation of cytochrome 21.91 Tissue plasminogen activator (TPA) - It is used b. isomerization of Cis–trans to treat heart attacks through activating the c. removal of hydrogen from succinateion enzyme plasminogen which dissolves blood clots in the d. catalyzes the hydrolysis of Lactose heart and often provides immediate relief. 21.92 Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) – When the enzyme 21.15 urease converts urea in the blood into ammonia, the a. sucrase ammonia produced, which is easily quantified, b. pyruvate decarboxylase becomes a urea indicator. The presence of high c. glucose isomerase quantities of urea in the blood indicates renal failure. d. lactate dehydrogenase 21.93 21.16 a. Lactate dehydrogenase a. lactase b. Aspartate transaminase b. nitrite oxidase 21.94 c. citrate decarboxylase a. creatinine phosphokinase d. Reduction of oxalate b. alanine transaminase 21.18 21.95 a. Cytochrome a. indicator of possible heart disease b. Lactose b. indicator of possible heart disease, liver c. Succinate disease, muscle damage d. Tyrosine
