3 variables that can cause an enzyme to lose its ability to function?
An enzyme is a catalyst for chemical reactions. Three variables that can cause an enzyme to lose its ability to function are temperature, pH level and concentration.
What are the levels of confirmation of an enzyme?
enzyme only work at a specific temperature of 37 if the temperature should exceed this temperature if will kill the enzyme
An enzyme is when it loses its native confirmation and its biological activity?
Its considered Denatured
How do changes in pH and temperature affect the native confirmation of an enzyme?
Enzymes are quite easy to break.So if the pH is too acidic,then the enzyme might break.Therefore if the temperature is too high,the enzyme will also break.
What is the effect of excess heat or temperature on an enzyme-?
With a lot of heat, the enzyme will be denatured meaning it will lose its shape and therefore its function.
What if you lost your confirmation number for the section 8 lottery?
You lose the lottery.
Can enzyme cause diseases?
Yes
What can cause an enzyme to be denatured?
Heat
What happens when an enzyme is heated or placed in acid?
when an enzyme is exposed to conditions it is not made for, it will denature and loose its shape. THEY DONT DIE THOUGH! they cant die because enzymes are never alive, they are just proteins. i know this stuff cause im taking my biology 2 exam in 2 weeks ;)
Why do enzymes lose their function when they are subject to extreme temperature changes?
When an enzyme is exposed to high temperatures, the enzyme will denature or unfold. Therefore, the enzyme will not function properly.
What are the effects of physical activity on enzyme activity?
Physical activity can alter the shape of enzyme which can cause damage or may the enzyme become inactive
Can your cold or virus cause your liver enzyme levels to rise?
Your cold or virus certainly can cause your liver enzyme levels to rise. There are a number of other factors that could cause this as well.
