I: Write “True” if the statement is correct and “False” if it is incorrect.
Enzymes catalyse the chemical reaction by decreasing the kinetic energy of substrates. F
Inhibition of enzyme is done by blocking its active site called non-competitive inhibition. F
Lock & key model state that active site of enzyme & substrates are naturally complementary. T
Enzymes speed up the biochemical reaction and consumed in the process of reaction. F
Using enzymes in industry allows the reactions to takes place in lower temperature. T
II: Match the following Reaction catalysed under column ‘A’ with corresponding enzyme
classes under column ‘B’.
A B
Change molecular form of the substrate Isomerases
Hydrolysis of a substrate Ligases
Non-hydrolytic removal or addition of a group to a substrate Lyases
Transfer of a specific group from one substrate to another Transferases
Joining of two molecules by the formation of new bonds Hydrolase
III: Fill the blank space with appropriate answer.
Enzyme acts best at a particular temperature called optimum temperature.
Holoenzyme is made from cofactor and apoenzyme.
Competitive inhibitors are usually structurally similar to the substrate.
IV: Choose the best answer from the given options & write your choice on the answer sheet
Which one of the following statement explains the specificity of enzymes? Enzymes:

To which class of enzyme do enzyme EC 6.1.14.2 is grouped?
Ligase B. Hydrolase C. Lyase D. Isomerase
Which one is different from the rest?
Competitive inhibitors C. Reversible inhibitors
Non-competitive inhibitors D. Irreversible inhibitors
A catalyzed reaction involves:
High activation energy C. Balanced activation energy
Low activation energy D. low kinetic energy
Which type of enzyme inhibition its effect is reversed by increasing substrate concentration?
Allosteric inhibition C. Non-competitive inhibition
Competitive inhibition D. End product inhibition
As the temperature increases, the
kinetic energy decreases
probability of substrate & enzyme collision increases
charge of amino acids that form the active site is altered
probability of substrate & enzyme collision decreases

metabolic pathway?
Enzyme denaturation C. Irreversible inhibition
End product inhibition D. Competitive inhibition
Only a small amount of enzymes are needed by a single cell because enzymes:
