The application of heat or acid to a protein that causes its shape to change is known as?
denaturation.
How does acids denature proteins?
The Acid disrupts the bonds between the amino acids that make up the tertiary structure of the protein. The disruption causes the protein to denature which causes a change in shape of the protein. We have to realize that sometimes this change in shape is good because the struction deterimines the function.
What refers to the situation in which the binding of a substrate to the enzyme causes a change in the enzymes shape facilitating an enzymes function?
requarment of clutch
When struck with a sharp blow ionic compounds tend to what while metallic substances which are what change shape?
"When struck with a sharp blow, ionic compounds tend to (crack) while metallic substances, which are (covalently bonded), change shape."This makes the most sense. A lot of ionic compounds form salts which are crystalline and brittle in solid form. This is obviously homework but what a terrible question, right down to the punctuation.
Is a raw egg cooked a physical or chemical change?
Chemical. If the component substances are the same at the end of the process, you have a physical change. If your object isn't made of the same substance at the end, it's chemical. Cooking denatures the proteins in the egg.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------No the above is incorrect.It is a physical change. The proteins forming the substance of the egg "denature" above about 60 degrees Celsius. Proteins are complexly folded molecules and the vibration caused by the application of heat causes them to unravel - Once untraveled they tangle up to form a solid and the processes irreversible but because the change is a change in shape it is physical not chemical.
What does the release of ADP and P from the myosin head cause?
The release of ADP and P from the myosin heads causes the myosin heads to change shape.
What triggers the binding of myosin to actin?
Calcium ions bind to troponin and change its shape.
What specific event triggers the uncovering of the myosin site on actin?
Calcium ions bind to troponin and change its shape.
What is the change in shape of rock due to stress?
Shape of rock also changes because of stress. It causes the rock to change its shape. When a lot of pressure applies it causes the rock to change its shape.
Are all substances the same before and after burning?
No, some substances change their whole form and others just change their color and shape.
Is gravity the force that causes rocks to change shape and size?
No, its erosion that causes rocks to change
What causes matter to change shape?

What causes cell to change shape?
microtubules
What is the muscle protein that has a golf club-like shape?
myosin
What causes changes in enzyme shape?
The shape of the enzyme must match the shape of the substrate. ... Higher temperature generally causes more collisions among the molecules and therefore ... bonding within the protein molecule change and the molecule changes shape.Can cause the enzyme to change shape? If you mean What causes it to change shape, mainly it's heat.
Why do metallic substances change shape when struck?
Malleability is a property of all metals.
What causes sediment to change in size and shape?
temperature
