Chapter 14, Problem 14.118SP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The variation of rate of an enzyme – catalyzed reaction with respect to the temperature has to be explained. The approximate temperature that corresponds to the maximum rate in the human body has to be determined.

Concept introduction:

A catalyst is a substance that changes the rate of a chemical reaction without being consumed itself in the reaction.

Enzymes are the biological catalyst; they are highly specific in nature.

Biologically enzymes are proteins which are denatured at higher temperature levels.

Temperature, pH and the presence of inhibitors are strong factors affecting the enzyme-catalyzed reactions.
