What is the effect that enzymes have on certain chemical reactions in living things?

Enzymes lower the activation energy (or free energy of activation for the very scientific) of the chemical reactions they catalyse. The enzymes can make a reaction proceed much more quickly than it otherwise would by astronomical figures, e.g. 109 times! Enzymes don't affect the equilibrium position, but they do affect the rate.

What effect has pH on enzymes?
too high or too low pH denatures the enzymes. you will get a small reaction with a base or acid. neutral pH level maximizes reactions
How do enzymes effect biochemical reactions?
Enzymes catalyze biochemical reactions by creating enough product that it eventually becomes an inhibitor to the enzyme and will essentially control the rate of reaction with the amount of product produced.
What do enzymes do for the body?
Enzymes are globular proteins that function as biological catalysts in the body. They help to activate and speed up anabolic and catabolic reactions. For example, enzymes help to break down/digest the food you eat.
What best describes chemical equilibrium a reactions have stopped b reactions continue with no effect on the concentration of reactant and products c reactions stop only when a?
lol n00b
What is activation energy and how do enzymes effect it?
There is no straight forward relation between enzyme and activation energy because although energy of reaction is fixed and is governed by laws of chemistry but for biochemical reactions concentration of enzyme and conc. of substrate affect rate of reaction and energy, but in general enzymes decrease activation energy of reaction.
Which statement will be describe how enzymes effect chemical reactions?
Enzymes lower the activation energy needed to start a chemical reaction.
How does enzyme produce this effect?
WE do not know what effect you are asking about, but enzymes are proteins that act as catalysts, they speed up chemical reactions.

What type of catalysts effect biochemical reactions?
Enzymes
What effect do enzymes have?
Simply, the effect of lowering the activation energy of biochemical reactions.
Why is it important to lower activation energy?
ITs important becayse enzymes allow chemical reactions to occur at the normal body temperature
How can chemical reaction effect the world?
Generally all in the world is the effect of chemical reactions.
Enzymes and their co enzymes?
enzymes are made up of protein. amino acids are a type of protein, but if ever askeda question on what they are made up of, the simple answer of :protein, will beappropriate. enzymes are what speed up the chemical reactions in our body, if wedid not have enzymes the chemical reactions would take a lot longer to take placeand could effect our body functions as the chemical reactions are not happening asthey are suppose to.
What effect do enzymes have on the activation of a chemical reaction?
why i get to thes bage
What is a special protein that effect the rate of chemical reactions?
An enzyme
What effect has pH on enzymes?

Is it possible that the human enzymes can be utilized as a perfume?
I don't think this would have much effect. Enzymes catalyse body reactions such as digestion. You Pheromone perfumes are on the market.
