What kind of molecules build up or break down large molecules?
Enzymes
Why enzymes are called hydrolytic enzymes?
Careful! Not all enzymes are hydrolytic. Hydrolytic enzymes catalyse reactions in which there is breaking of molecules (involving the participation of water molecules). There are enzymes which catalyse reactions in which molecules join together to form a larger molecule (condensation reactions)
Do digestive enzymes slow down digestion?
no it dont enzymes breaks down the large molecules into small molecules
What are enzymes KS2?
enzymes are molecules that help break own your food
Do restriction enzymes cut protein molecules at specific sites?
No. restriction enzymes do not cut proteins. restriction enzymes cut DNA molecules at specific sites called restriction sites.
What kind of molecules build up or break down large molecules?
Enzymes
What do you call the molecules which make reactions work such as the breakdown of food molecules?
Those types of molecules are called enzymes.
What types of organic molecules are enzymes. a. carbohydrates b. lipids c.nucleic acids d. proteins?
The organic molecules enzymes are basically proteins. This does not necessary mean that all the enzymes are proteins.
Enzymes are carbohydrates molecules?
Enzymes are not carbohydrate molecules. They are protein molecules.
Are most enzymes carbohydrate molecules?
Enzymes are not carbohydrate molecules. They are protein molecules.
Do enzymes digest protein?
Enzymes are a type of proteins themselves but what enzymes do is they break down large macromolecules into smaller molecules that can be reassembled to synthesize materials. So enzymes can break things down and build them up, proteins included.
What types of reactions can enzymes catalyze?
Enzymes are biological substances which catalyze biochemical reactions. Enzymes can catalyze both catabolic and anabolic reactions; whether in breaking down or building up complex molecules.
What is meant by the enzyme specificity?
Enzymes work on one substrate specifically. This is why there is millions of different types of enzymes to interact with all the molecules they need to metabolically and chemically react with.

Complex organic molecules that work with enzymes to facilitate the enzymes?
co-enzymes
The process of digestion involves?
The Enzymes in the mouth breaking up the molecules The Enzymes in the mouth breaking up the molecules
Do digestive enzymes slow down digestion?
no it dont enzymes breaks down the large molecules into small molecules
