Enzymes - are biological catalysts made of proteins, Substrate - is the specific chemical on which the enzyme works, Active site - is the part of the enzyme where the substrate fits into, Optimum temperature - is the temperature the enzyme works best, normally 37 0 C, Optimum pH - the pH at which the enzyme works best. This is different for different enzymes, Enzymes can be denatured - at high temperatures and extreme pH's, Denatured - the shape of the active site is altered permenantly, Enzymes substrate complex - the structure formed when an enzyme and its substrate fit together,
