Which of the following will occur if there is an increase in enzyme or substrate concentration?  interfere with the reaction. increase the rate of reaction. decrease the rate of reaction. not change the rate of product produced reduce the rate of product produced.
Coenzymes function to: change the shape of enzymes, allowing different additional substrates to bind.   denature the enzyme, stopping the chemical reaction from occurring. interact directly with enzymes, either enabling the reaction to occur or making the substrate-enzyme interaction more efficient.   dilate blood vessels, allowing more blood to flow, allowing more substrate to reach enzymes.   absorb excess hydrogen and hydroxide ions, keeping the pH relatively stable, so that reactions can occur most efficiently.
The major source of energy for most cells comes from     absorbing solar and geothermal energy.   utilizing high energy compounds.   breaking the last bond in ATP.   making the last bond in ATP.
