Question 10 of 28
10. Question
Why does the rate of disappearance of substrate decrease over time in an enzyme-catalyzed reaction?
- The concentration of substrate decreases and so interactions between substrate and enzyme become less frequent
- The concentration of substrate decreases and so interactions between substrate and enzyme become more frequent
- The concentration of substrate increases and so interactions between substrate and enzyme become less frequent
- The concentration of substrate increases and so interactions between substrate and enzyme become more frequent
Correct
Incorrect
Question 11 of 28
11. Question
Why does the rate of appearance of product decrease over time in an enzyme-catalyzed reaction?
- Product levels will have increased and product molecules may prevent substrate from reaching the active site
- Product levels will have decreased and product molecules may prevent substrate from reaching the active site
- Product levels will have increased and product molecules may be permanently bound into the active site
- Product levels will have increased and changed the temperature of the reaction
Correct
Incorrect

Incorrect
Question 14 of 28
14. Question
What happens to the rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction as the temperature is increased from 0°C to 100°C?
- The rate of reaction increases until the optimum tempertature is reached and then decreases until the enzyme becomes denatured
- The rate of reaction increases continuously until the enzyme becomes denatured
- The rate of reaction increases until the optimum tempertature is reached and then remains at that level until the substrate is used up completely
- The rate of reaction gradually increases until the optimum tempertature is reached and then gradually decreases until the temperature reaches 100°C.
