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.
Find an example of an enzyme.
a) What is the chemical reaction that is catalyzed by the enzyme?
b) Why is this enzyme/chemical reaction important to the organisms in which it occurs?
Which statement does NOT apply to the lock-and-key theory?
O explains the functioning of enzymes
explains the need for a specific three dimensional structure found in proteins
explains the reason why a particular enzyme is involved with one substrate
explains why a substrate-enzyme complex is so difficult to separate
