How does substrate concentration and pH affect enzymes?
Substrate concentration will affect enzymes because substrates are specific to enzymes. The pH will affect enzymes because certain enzymes will work better in certain pH levels.
How does a high fever affect an enzyme?
The enzymes' activity will be changed or affected because they can not function well at higher tempratures, as the reson why people die of high fevers because the enzymes will be denatured and their body functions are not able to stay normal.
What are two things that can affect the enzymes shape?
Salt concentration and the pH! also the temperature and activations and inhibitors affect an enzymes actions
How enzymes affect reactions?
Enzymes lower the activation energy required for reactions to occur
Why can damage to DNA affect a person's ability to produce enzymes?
down sindrome
How does concentration affect enzymes?
The greater the concentration of enzymes, the high possibility that a molecule will bind to the active site, so the faster a reaction takes place.
How does pH affect plants growth?
becaues the plants will not have room for its root to grow
How does substrate concentration and pH affect enzymes?
Substrate concentration will affect enzymes because substrates are specific to enzymes. The pH will affect enzymes because certain enzymes will work better in certain pH levels.
How does an inhibitor affect the rate of chemical reaction?
Enzymes fasten chemical reactions, inhibitors blocks the enzymes and they will not accelerate the reaction.
How does a high fever affect an enzyme?
The enzymes' activity will be changed or affected because they can not function well at higher tempratures, as the reson why people die of high fevers because the enzymes will be denatured and their body functions are not able to stay normal.
How pH levels affect enzymes?
It disrupts an enzymes shape and structure.

Enzymes are affected by?
There are several factors that affect enzyme itself. 1. Temperature As the shape specificity of the enzyme's active site is vital for any enzyme reaction, therefore an optimal temperature is important for enzymes. Enzymes will be inactive under low temperatures since it has too low kinetic energy to start the reaction or quickens the reaction. Alternatively, enzyme's structure and the shape of active site will changed in high temperature. Eventually, enzymes are denature and never can be used again. 2. pH value As mentioned, the structure of enzyme is highly sensitive to the external environment, therefore pH value of the environment also has an effect on enzymes. Again, the shape of enzymes changed outside the range of pH value that suits particular enzymes. For instance, the optimum pH value for enzymes in stomach is around pH 2 whereas most are pH 7. 3. Presence of inhibitor There are 2 types of inhibitor, one is non-competition inhibitor. These inhibitors will bind to the allosteric site (alternative site) of the enzymes that alters the shape of active site, therefore preventing the substrate from binding the enzymes and having reactions.
How enzymes affect reactions?
Enzymes lower the activation energy required for reactions to occur
What effects does acid have on ezyme?
Acids can denature enzymes and make them less active or completely inactive. Denaturation causes a change in the three-dimensional structure of an enzyme which can affect the function of the enzyme.
What are enzymes called because they affect the speed of chemical reaction without being consumed?
enzymes are never consumed in a chemical reaction, therefore the answer to your question is that enzymes that affect the speed of a chemical reaction without being consumed are indeed called enzymes.
Do enzymes affect the thermodynamics of a reaction true or false?
Enzymes have no effect on the overall thermodynamics of a reaction.
