Question

The target substrate molecules bind to active site of the enzyme transforming into products through a series of steps known as the ____________

(a) enzyme kinetics

(b) enzymatic mechanism

(c) chemical kinetics

(d) zero order reaction kinetics

The question was posed to me in an interview for job.

I need to ask this question from Enzyme Kinetics topic in section Enzyme Kinetics of Enzyme Technology

Answer 1

The correct choice is (b) enzymatic mechanism

Best explanation: Enzymatic mechanism is referred to as series of steps through which products are formed when substrate molecule binds to active site of the enzyme. The rates of chemical reactions that are catalyzed by enzymes is called enzyme kinetics. Whereas chemical kinetics describes the rates of chemical reactions. Zero order reaction kinetics is one in which the rate of the reaction does not depend on reaction concentration.
