Question
Chapter 20, Problem 20.7E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Three ways in which enzymes are particularly well-suited for their essential roles in living organisms are to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Enzymes are organic molecules present in the cells which catalyze biochemical reactions. They speed up the rate of the reaction and remain intact at the end of the reaction. All biochemical reactions in living cells require enzymes to proceed.

Reagents & Reaction Conditions use practice sheet. Please write only
major products, minor product like water, other gases are not
required.
Hint: In substitution of alcohol, we generally substitute OH group
with Halogens like cl, Br, F using some reagent containing
halogens. Ensure to add halogens to the same carbon number
where you are removing OH from
