a.

Summary Introduction

To list:

Four characteristic properties of an enzyme and explain the role each plays in an enzyme’s catalytic activity

Concept Introduction:

Enzymes are protein molecules, which convert substrate molecules to products in a chemical reaction inside the cell. They decrease the activation energy and overcome the energy barrier required for catalysis of the reaction. The substrate molecules are consumed and are converted to products.

b.

Summary Introduction

To draw:

An enzyme-substrate reaction involving an apoenzyme, make sure to label the active site, the substrate molecule and products formed in the reaction.

Concept introduction:

Enzymes consist of various components like active site, cofactor, binding of substrate molecule and formation of product inside the cell.
