What else can I help you with?
How could you slow down the enzyme?
This would depend on what kind of reaction you are referring to. Endothermic (heat-absorbing) reactions would slow down at lower temperatures. Exothermic (heat-releasing) reactions would gain speed at lower temperatures. Inhibitors to the reaction can slow down biological processes.
How do competitive inhibitors stop a chemical reaction?
Inhibitors decrease the rate of a reaction. However the use of inhibitors can be useful in decreasing the rates of unwanted side reactions. For instance if Chemical A could turn into chemical B or chemical C, but chemical C was useless, an inhibitor could be used to reduce the amount of C formed and maximise the amount of B produced from A. This is especially important in industrial processes, where undesired products waste reactant and thus money.
What does virtually halted means?
"Virtually halted" means that something has been almost completely stopped or significantly slowed down, to the point where progress or movement is barely perceptible.
Will introducing a competitive inhibitor change the rate of reaction?
Yes, introducing a competitive inhibitor will slow down the rate of reaction. This is because the competitive inhibitor competes with the substrate for binding to the active site of the enzyme, reducing the rate of substrate conversion into the product.
What does enzyme catalsed reaction mean?
A catalyst is a substance that speeds up other chemical reactions but is not consumed or permanently altered in that reaction. Basically the catalyst just makes it easier for the other chemicals to react with each other so that the reaction will proceed faster. Enzymes are biological catalysts(catalysts that are created by living organisms). So an enzyme catalyzed reaction is when chemicals are reacting with each other and an enzyme is used to catalyze(speed up) the reaction.

What is the condition where normal blood flow is slowed or halted?
Coagulation or clotting means to stop blood flow.

What does cooling and heating do to enzyme activity?
Cooling: When an enzyme is cooled, the activity is only slowed down. Heating: If an enzyme is overheated, it is known as a denatured enzyme. It changes shape to due the break down of it, and will no longer be able to bond with the substrate.
On average a drunk drivers reaction time is slowed by how much?
1 sec. to 2 seconds
What is slowed reflexes?
Slowed reflexes refer to a delayed or diminished response of the nervous system to a stimulus. This can be caused by various factors such as fatigue, medications, or certain medical conditions. Slowed reflexes may manifest as a sluggish reaction to physical stimuli or challenges that require quick responses.
What Body tissues work when you exercise?
muscles get tired, reaction is slowed up and circulation of the blood increases
How does alcohol affect thebrain?
Difficulty walking,Blurred vison,Slurred speech,Slowed reaction times,Impaired memory
What type of substance slows down chemical reaction?
Chemical reactions can be either sped up or slowed down by catalysts.
