Enzymes are biological catalysts. They speed up biochemical reaction. During the course of a reaction, the enzyme molecules do not get consumed. At the end of a reaction, the enzyme molecules are ready for another reaction. Enzymes are able to catalyze reactions by decreasing the free energy change (delta G) associated with a biochemical reaction. When the reactants have to go through a smaller free energy change, the products are formed faster.

How do enymes dentature?
Denaturation is when the interactions that hold together the tertiary and secondary structure of the enzyme are disrupted causing it to lose its shape and thus its functionality. The primary structure (covalently linked amino acids) remains in tact, but other interactions like hydrogen bonding, ionic bonding and disulfide bridges are broken. High temperatures can cause denaturation among other things.
What teperature do the enzymes of different animals work at?
Different enymes can function at different temperatures but most of them would function optimally more or less around the body temperature range.
Would drinking alcohol before a lft effect the results of liver enymes?
Of course! Alcohol is metabolized by the liver, and will affect liver function tests.
Will an enzyme produce by your salivary glands in your mouth work well in your stomach?
No. Because enymes work specifically therefore the enymes produced by your mouth won't work in your stomach.
What is the nutrition in cockroach and stating all the enymes involved?

Do enymes help decrease the activation energy?
Yes, they lower activation energy and can therefore be considered as catalysts.
