11
New cards
enzyme
The ________ can be increased and decrease the rate of reaction but not affect the reaction end products.
12
New cards
metabolic pathway
Some ________ is linear and some are branched yielding multiple useful end products from a single precursor or converting several starting materials up to a signal product.
