Chapter 16.5, Problem 16.33QAP

Why do chemical reactions in the body require enzymes?

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Enzymes function most efficiently at the temperature of a typical cell, which is 37 degrees Celsius. Increases or decreases in temperature can significantly lower the reaction rate. What does this suggest about the importance of temperature-regulating mechanisms in organisms? How does this translate to the development of enzyme assays for clinical laboratory testing equipment? Explain.
Describe how enzymes increase the rates of chemical reactions
"All enzymes are proteins, not all proteins are enzymes" Explain this statement ?
