What is the word used for afit model used in showrooms inthe modeling / fashionindustry?
There is a word/term used in the modeling / fashion industry that refers to a model of a specific size who can be used for certain jobs because they fit a certain size criteria. I am explaining this pooly. I cannot think of the word/term and it is driving me insane. If a model is "this" they can work in the showroom and model for the designers and the buyers because they fit this size criteria. For male models, they have to be a 40 Reg, for instance. Words/terms it is NOT: fit model average standard mannequin size Here's another weird thing about this: this term ALSO is used to define the clothing a stylist pulls from a showroom for a shoot. Does anyone know what I am talking about? One person told me they think it starts with a "P" but I don't know if it does, for sure. Thank you!
I'm not sure about the specific word you're looking to find, but we use the term 'fit model' regularly in the industry. The proportions for a fit model vary from company to company. A fit model is someone who represents the average measurements for the target customer of an apparel line. Patterns are cut based on the fit models measurements, he or she is used to fit mock-ups before the samples are produced. Obviously, sizes can vary greatly, depending on the company's need. For instance, a line catering to an older, Missy sized consumer would use a fit model with completely different measurements than a line with a younger, junior based customer. You may find job listings or more info. in the classified section of Women's Wear Daily, or WWD.com. I hope this helps.

. How do enzymes work (chemically speaking) ? Include a description of the Induced Fit model, the concept of lowering activation energy, specificity, and active site.
Chemically speaking, enzymes are catalysts that, like all catalysts, increase reaction rate by lowering the energy of activation. The way enzymes fold to form an active site gives specificity in that only the proper substrates fit into position at that site, and fit in a conformation that puts them in proximity of amino acid side chains that facilitate catalysis. The induced fit model, unlike the lock and key model in which a substrate simply fits into the prefolded enzyme at the right spot, says that the binding of a substrate to an enzyme's active site induces changes in the enzyme's folded state that may lead to tighter binding and do lead to more efficient catalysis.
