What protein and some hormones influence all chemical processes occurring in living organisms?
Enzymes are proteins that catalyze chemical reactions in living organisms, influencing all chemical processes. Hormones, such as insulin, thyroid hormone, and adrenaline, also play a key role in regulating various physiological processes in the body. Together, enzymes and hormones help control and coordinate the vast array of chemical reactions that occur in living organisms.
Is carbon dioxide a nutrient?
Carbon is an element, but the definition of a nutrient is any substance which can be metabolized by an animal to give energy and build tissue. So YES, carbon can be a nutrient. Carbon in some forms however my not be available for metabolism and may be considered purely an element, such as diamond.
Are enzymes monomers used to build protein?
No, enzymes are not monomers used to build proteins. Enzymes are proteins that act as catalysts to facilitate biochemical reactions in living organisms. Monomers like amino acids are the building blocks used to create proteins, including enzymes.
Can enzymes work over a broad range of PH levels?
Enzymes have an optimal pH at which they work most efficiently, but some enzymes can function over a range of pH levels beyond their optimal pH. However, extreme pH levels can denature enzymes, leading to loss of their function.
What happens to the nitrogen when organic material decomposes?
During decomposition of organic material, the nitrogen in the material is released into the soil and can be taken up by plants as a nutrient for growth. Some of the nitrogen can also be converted into forms that are released back into the atmosphere, such as nitrogen gas.
Do proteins form hormones enzymes and connective tissue?
Enzymes are catalytic proteins. Connective tissue is, well, tissue and is made of cells, but proteins such as collagen do play an important role. Some hormones are proteins and some are not. An example of a protein that serves as a hormone is insulin. However, hormones such as testosterone or thyroxin are NOT proteins.
Globular protein example?
Hemoglobin, Enzymes, Antibodies, Transporters in Membranes, Some Hormones (e.g. Insulin)
What hormones are produced in the small intestines?
In the small intestines, hormones such as cholecystokinin (CCK), secretin, and gastric inhibitory peptide (GIP) are produced. These hormones play roles in regulating digestion, absorption of nutrients, and controlling the release of other digestive enzymes.
What does the pyloric caeca do?
the Pyloric ceca secrets digestive enzymes

What proteins are in globular proteins?
There are two class of protein based on their structure namely fibrous and globular. Globular proteins form a globe like spherical structure in contrary to rod like fibrous proteins (collagen). They are soluble in water and the structure is rendered by its three dimensional arrangement of amino acids in solution. Most of the enzymes, soluble hormones and factors fall into this class of proteins.
Why must hormones be injected and not given in pill form?
Some hormones are not well absorbed when taken orally and may be broken down by enzymes in the digestive system before they can reach the bloodstream. Injecting hormones allows for direct delivery into the bloodstream, providing a more reliable and consistent dosage. Additionally, some hormones are destroyed or metabolized by the liver if taken orally, reducing their effectiveness.
What forms hormones which act as chemical regulators for growth and development?
the hormones are form from the organs and are passed by ducts (in some cases only.Eg-pancreas) into parts of the body and act chemically in growth and development in the body
What secretes enzymes that digest food outside their bodies?
Fungi and some bacteria secrete enzymes that digest food outside their bodies. This process allows them to break down nutrients into simpler forms that they can then absorb.
What kind of hormones are present in saliva?
basically, the homone present in the siliver is ptylin hormone the ptylin hormone is produced in the silivery gland and it helps in the breaking down of complex sugar into simple sugar.
Some glands in the body release their products through small tubes called?
Ducts. These ducts are responsible for transporting the secretions, such as hormones or enzymes, from the glands to specific locations in the body.
Which type of proteins activate some chemicals reactions in the body?
enzymes :)
