Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the term for the maximum rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction?
  • Step 1: Understand that enzymes are proteins that help speed up chemical reactions in the body.
  • Step 2: Know that enzymes work best when they have enough substrate (the substance they act on).
  • Step 3: Realize that when all the enzyme's active sites are filled with substrate, the enzyme is said to be 'saturated'.
  • Step 4: Learn that the maximum rate of reaction that occurs when the enzyme is saturated is called 'Vmax'.
  • Step 5: Remember that Vmax indicates the fastest speed at which the enzyme can convert substrate into product.
