- - - - Activation Energy is lowered
      - Illustration Activation Energy
    - - Enzymes speed up the rate of chemical reactions
    - - The function of an enzyme is the speed of a chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy needed to initiate a chemical reaction
    - - Temperature
      - pH
      - Inhibitors
    - - Amylase
        
        Breaks down Carbohydrates
      - Nuclease
        
        Breaks down Nucleic Acid
      - Protease
        
        Breaks down Protein
      - Lipase
        
        Breaks down Lipids
    - - Enzymes are not consumed in the reaction
      - Enzyme-Substrate Complex
        
        Induced Fit Model
        
        Shape of the enzyme changes when the substrate attaches to the active site
        
        Lock and Key Model
        
        Enzyme returns to its original shape after releasing products and can be used again
        
        Enzyme-Substrate Complex
      - Also known as Catalysts
      - Break molecules apart, build or add molecules together or rearrange molecules
      - Enzymes end in -ase
- - - - Second Group of Intermediate Products
