Tay-Sach's disease is caused by a genetic defect which affects the activity of enzymes?
lysosomal enzymes
What type of catalyst affects biochemical reaction?
Enzymes
What is a protein that affects reaction rates?
These are called enzymes.
What are the enzymes in your body and what are their reaction that they affects in the body?
There are 1000's of enzymes in the body. In a biochemical pathway there maybe be multiple enzymes used! for examply, glycolysis..
Could photosynthesis decrease if you increase light-intensity?
Temperature affects the rate. Because of it is using enzymes.
What are the factors affects the function of enzymes?
pH and Temperature both impact the enzyme's function.
Does boiling water kill enzymes?
Enzymes are not alive, so they cannot be killed. Typically though, bringing an enzyme to a boiling temperature is enough to denature it. There's no evidence though that denatured enzymes in food at all affects the nutritional effects of the food.
How does salt affect enzymes?
Salt concentration affects all enzymes differently. Depending on the situation, salt concentration has the ability to precipitate or unfold the enzyme. It also has the ability to disrupt hydrogen binding and binding to ionic residues decreasing, which could increase the activity of the enzyme.
What hormone affects the metabolism of carbohydrates and proteins?
Cortisol I got the answer of glucocorticoids from medical terminology.
Is temperature a factor that affects enzyme activity?
yes. at low temperature enzymes won't work as effectively, and at high temperature enzymes are denatured.
What can a fever slow down?
enzymes best function at optimum temperature for human body optimum temperature is 37 C, raise in optimum temperature affects the function of enzymes and with very high temperature enzyme activity ceases. high temperature also affects proteins resulting in protein structural changes. fever slow down the enzyme activity.
How does temperature affects activity?
The enzyme activity increases as the temperature rises due to the substrates colliding with the enzymes' active sites more frequently at higher temperatures. However, each enzyme has an optimum temperature as high temperatures denature enzymes.
