    The shape of the sucrase molecule is related to its function because the specific 3D shape allows it to bind to sucrose and catalyze its breakdown into glucose and fructose. The shape of proteins, including enzymes, is important for their function because their 3D structure determines what substrates they can bind to and catalyze reactions for. A catalyst is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without being consumed itself in the process.

    1 Yeast cells make the enzyme sucrase. Sucrase catalyses the breakdown of sucrose to glucose
    and fructose.

    Enzymes are made of protein.

    Explain how the shape of a sucrase molecule is related to its function.

    4 A student investigated the rate of oxygen uptake during aerobic respiration in woodlice. Woodlice
    are arthropods.

    The diagram shows the apparatus the student used. Soda lime absorbs carbon dioxide.

    When the tap is closed air cannot move into or out of the apparatus. The coloured liquid moves
    when the tap is closed.

    The table shows the results of this investigation.
