Question 1 • CR SS Chemistry S2 2018/19 2026

Which statement defines enzymatic activity?

Answer
A
Enzymes are required to slow down biological reactions within cells.
B
Specific enzymes can catalyze a wide variety of chemical reactions.
C
Enzymes regulate cellular functions through feedback mechanisms.
D
Enzymes bind substrates so that reactive groups have many different orientations.

Explanation

Enzymatic activity refers to the ways enzymes help control the rates of reactions and regulate processes in cells. Feedback mechanisms are one way enzymes regulate cellular functions. Enzymes generally speed up reactions, so A is incorrect; each enzyme is usually specific to particular reactions, so B is incorrect. D is also incorrect because enzymes position substrates in a favorable orientation rather than many different orientations.
