    chemical) digestion ;

    (protein) digested to amino acids ;

    insoluble to soluble molecules ;

  • 3(a)(ii)[4]

    any four from:

    enzymes have, a specific shape / complementary shape to substrate ;

    correct ref. to active site ;

    30°C is optimum temperature ;

    above 50 °C (these) enzymes denature ;

    ref. to active site changing (shape) ;

    (below 30 °C,) less kinetic energy / lower frequency of effective collisions (between substrate and enzyme) ; ora
