What is the optimum temperature for enzymes in most locations of the human body?
Some enzyme function only in specific conditions, they are activated only in suitable environment. some work only in neutral environment. all ptyalin in saliva works only in the mouth which has a pH of 6-8 but when food is in the stomach wherein it's acidic, ptyalin action stops. enzymes don't function below with freezing point destroyed by too much heat. each organs has a specific temp called optimum temperature. in the human beings, enzymes can't function unless certain vitamins are present/ the right amount of vitamins will give maximum use of vitamins as well as enzymes.
What are the temperatures for lava and magma?
Lava - between 700 - 1300 degrees Celsius magma - same as above
Can cell repiration occur in organism at a temp above 65 deg centigrade - give reason?
The rate of any reaction depends on the active masses of the reactants, the pH and the temperature. This applies to the biological reactions involving enzymes like cellular respiration The enzymes in general get more and more active as the temperature increases. This would be true till the temperature reaches up to 45 degree Celsius (in general for humans). Above which some enzymes denature and their activity completely drops off. This temperature is variable and is dependent on the enzyme. (A few enzymes are active even at high temperatures). But at 65 degree Celsius most of the intracellular enzymes are denatured. So as the temperature increases, the cellular respiration increases up to a certain point and then there is a sharp decline so at or after 65 degree Celsius cellular respiration is virtually impossible.
What effect do temperature and pH have on enzyme controlled reactions?
enzyme require an optimum temperature and ph level to be active. temperature at which most enzymes are active is around 35-40 degree celcius. above this temperature the enzyme loses it globular structure and thus the substrate will not be able to bind with it. some enzymes are active in alkali ph while others are active in acidic temperature. but most of the enzymes are active in neutral ph and this helps to maintain its globular structure.
Why do cyclones occur in hot places?
Cyclones need warm sea temperatures (above 26 degrees Celsius) in order to form.
What is the advantage of washing clothes at such low temperatures?
the enzymes function at temperatures not above than 45 degrees Celsius and becomes denatured, therefore the enzymes will not work. At low temperature enzymes can work properly
Why does Enzyme reaction rate decrease at 37 degrees?
Enzymes are catalysts for chemical reactions. All chemical reactions are affected by temperature. Higher temperatures make the reactions happen faster, and colder temperatures make them happen slower. At 37 degrees, just a little above freezing, many biological enzymes practically stop working.
What happens at temperatures above a billion degrees?
There is no life. No human could survive such temperatures.
What happens to the structure of enzymes after they are exposed to temperatures above the normal body temperature degreees Celsius?
The denature
When ocean temperatures rise a few degrees above normal?
winter
Enzymes are usually inactivated at what temperature?
The optimal range for the enzymatic activity goes from 25oC to 32oC.
What temperatures can make you ill?
Anything above 98.6 degrees and anything below 98.6 degrees, inside your body.
What is waters state at temperatures above 100 degrees Celsius?
Above 100 0C water become a gas.
Is iron always solid?
No. Iron is a liquid at temperatures above 2,800 degrees Fahrenheit.
Where in the US are temperatures above 65 degrees in February?
In Honolulu or visit Puerto Rico.
What temperature do flies stop coming around?
Flies cannot survive at temperatures above 150 degrees Fahrenheit. Most flies will die at temperatures at or below 40 degrees Fahrenheit.
What is the definition of summer heat?
Meteorologically speaking and media speaking, it's hot temperatures. Typically temperatures above 85 degrees(f)
