5. The place where reactants bind to an
enzyme during a reaction is called the
a. Product
b. Activation energy
c. Substrate
d. Active site
6. If an animal were placed in a solution of ocean
water, what would happen?
a. The cell would swell because the water
solution is hypotonic.
b. The cell would swell because the water
solution is hypertonic.
c. The cell would shrivel because the water
solution is hypertonic.
d. The cell would shrivel because the water
solution is hypotonic.
