$100 This diagram shows what special property of enzymes? Jeopardy Menu That enzymes LOWER THE ACTIVATION ENERGY

$200 Enzymes bind to these. They are also known as reactants in a chemical reaction. Jeopardy Menu Substrates

$100 What physically happens to an enzyme when it is “denatured” Jeopardy Menu They lose their specific 3D structure

$200 Your hand is bitten by a spider that injects an enzyme that causes cell death. How can you best stop or slow down cell death? Jeopardy Menu Change the environment (pH, temperature, ionic conditions) that surround the enzyme

$100 The lock-and-key model of enzymes shows that enzymes only fit with... Jeopardy Menu A specific substrate (enzymes are substrate- specific!)
