Chapter 10, Problem 10.1EP
What is the general role of enzymes in the human body?
Expert Solution & Answer
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The general role of enzymes in the human body has to be stated.
Concept introduction: Enzymes are the catalysts that increase the rate of reaction. The human body contains different enzymes because every reaction in a cell needs a specific enzyme.
Answer to Problem 10.1EP
The general role of enzyme is to act as a catalyst in the biochemical reactions.
Explanation of Solution
The compound that acts as a catalyst for a biochemical reaction is called enzyme. Enzymes increase the rate of the cellular reactions in comparison to the uncatalyzed reactions.
Hence, the role of enzyme is to act as a catalyst in various biochemical reactions.

14 Question (1 point)
Disiamylborane adds to a triple bond to give an alkenylborane. Upon oxidation with OH, H2O2, the alkenylborane will form an enol that tautomerizes
to an aldehyde. In the first box below, draw the mechanism arrows for the reaction of disiamylborane with the alkyne, and in the last box draw the
structure of the aldehyde.
