thermostable enzyme is kind of enzyme that could keep working (do their function) through heating condition. Some of enzyme are unstable through heating and get denaturation ( loss of 3D protein shape) in 40-60 degree Celsius. Example: kind of alfa amylase enzyme that stable in 60 degree C.
Yes. Vent polymerase is thermostable and is commonly used for PCR
Thermostable glass is a borosilicate glass.
PCR need thermostable enzyme like taq DNA polymearse, while in replication using highly proofreading enzyme DNA polymerase. taq enzyme work in very high temprature while in replication our body temprature
It is used in Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), which embrace temperature of 94°C - the polymerase has to be able to sustain such temperature.
An enzyme is one kind of protein that can catalyze a specific reaction whereas a regulatory enzyme is the enzyme which can regulate a series of reaction which undergo in the living organism. So we can say every enzyme is not a regulatory one but the regulatory enzymes are obviously a special kind of enzyme.

The thermostable polymerase (or Taq polymerase) is a thermostable DNA polymerase (named after the thermophilic bacterium Thermus aquaticus from which it was originally isolated by Thomas D. Brock in 1965), is often abbreviated to "Taq Pol" (or simply "Taq"), and is frequently used in polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Taq polymerase is as an enzyme able to withstand the protein-denaturing conditions (high temperature) required during PCR; Therefore it replaced the DNA polymerase from E. coli originally used in PCR. Taq's optimum temperature for activity is 75-80°C, with a half-life of greater than 2 hours at 92.5°C, 40 minutes at 95°C and 9 minutes at 97.5°C, and can replicate a 1000 base pair strand of DNA in less than 10 seconds at 72°C.

Taq Polymerase is an important enzyme component involved in the PCR reaction. Its A DNA polymerase and its role is to elongate the growing strands of DNA during the extension process. Since the Extension process in a PCR works at a temperature which a human DNA polymerase cannot remain active, the Taq polymerase obtained from Thermus aquaticus (living in the hot springs) are used and hence these enzymes are thermo stable.
The enzyme is inactive at this point. New enzyme must be added to regain enzyme activity
in an enzyme-substrate complex, the enzyme acts on the substrate .
An enzyme is a protein
