Draw and label a diagram to show how an
enzyme works. Label the substrate, enzyme,
active site
Why can enzymes not be killed?
Enzymes were never living to start with
(never carried out MRS NERG), they are
just strands of DNA / protein.
Why are enzymes used in baby
foods?
Protease enzymes are used to predigest baby food so babies can get
hold of more of the nutrients
Where are proteins made?
At ribosomes in all body cells
Give some examples of proteins.
Keratin in nails and hair, melanin in skin
pigment, haemoglobin in red blood cells,
enzymes, mucous, cilia, gastric juices.
What reaction does amylase catalyse?
Starch into glucose
Where is the enzyme secreted from?
Salivary glands, pancreas and small
intestine
What conditions does the enzyme work
best in?
Weak alkali – pH 8
What is the protein bile?
A strong alkali
Where is bile made?
In the liver
Where is bile stored?
In the gall bladder
What two main factors
can affect the rate at
which an enzyme works?
1. pH
2. Temperature
What reaction does protease catalyse?
Proteins into amino acids
Where is the enzyme secreted from?
Stomach, pancreas and small intestine
What conditions does the enzyme work
best in?
Strong acid – pH 2
What reaction does lipase catalyse?
Fats into fatty acids and glycerol
Where is the enzyme secreted from?
Small intestine and pancreas
What conditions does the enzyme work
best in?
Weak alkali – pH 8
What are the advantages of using
enzymes in washing powders?
Lower temperatures used so less
fossils fuels used to generate
electricity and fewer carbon emissions
produced.
What are the disadvantages of
using enzymes in washing powders
May cause dermatitis
May remove more of the colouring
from clothes than non-biological
