Why lipase breaks down fat into fatty acid only works well at temperatures close to body temperature?

Because if enzymes are exposed to very high temperature they get damaged and don't work properly but they also need pretty high temperature to work to their maximum quickness. Body temperature is PERFECT!

What is the temperature of constellation Aquarius?
Constellations do not have temperatures. They are made up of individual stars that may seem to be close together as viewed from Earth, but the individual stars are usually separated by very great distances.
What is the change of state when magma crystallizes to form ingeous rock?
It is according to what kind of material the lava is made from. If there are different minerals in the lava, then it is according to what temperature the mineral returns to the solid state, or a rock. Some minerals have a liquid temperature, close to the liquid temperature of another minerals, and chances are they will form in the same rock. Temperature determines what the rocks will become. Like gold is found in quartz. Their liquid temperatures are close so they form together.
Is air wet or dry when the air and dew point temperatures are close?
The closer the ambient and dew point temperatures get, the more moisture is in the air.
When do cold temperatures occur on Venus?
They don't. Venus is a hot, hot, hot, hot planet due to its thic cloud cover. A number of common metals will melt on Venus's surface where the temperature is close to 860 degrees, F
What is the average temperature in space?
Close to absolute zero.
Why does different places experience different temperatures?
From my understanding, the temperature varies by how the sun orbits (and therefore how close the sun is to that particular area) or how close you are to the equator.
At what temperature does a school have to close in the US?
There are no set temperatures for schools to have to close in the United States. Individual school districts make that decision based on whether going to school at a given temperature would be unsafe for students.
What temperature does it have to be for schools to close?
Some, but not all schools may have guidelines for temperatures they close schools for. Usually, there are no firm guidelines, but schools open later when the temperature and other factors are determined to be dangerous for children to go from their homes to the school. Schools seldom close for the entire day because of low temperatures, but open an hour or two later than normal.
Does water expand when it's cooled?
It does except when the temperature is close to 4 Celsius degrees. At this temperature water actually expends a little bit. But when you move further from 4 degrees towards negative temperatures it starts to shrink again as does when it comes from higher temperatures to 4 Celsius.
How does being close to Lake Erie affect the temperature in Pennsylvania?
Areas in Pennsylvania close to Lake Erie have more moderate temperatures than areas away from it. That is, it doesn't usually get as cold in the winter or as hot in the summer close to the lake.
Does the temperatures usually get cold when you get close to the equator?
No, in fact the temperatures get warmer.
What is a bat's average body temperature?
Hibernating bats typically require relatively stable temperatures between 32 F and 49 F. In contrast, summer nursery colonies need temperatures of close to 60 F or more, preferably 70 F or above to successfully rear young.
What is the temperatuer in Vancouver?
The temperature in Vancouver is around 25-30 degrees Celsius in the hottest summer months and the coldest temperatures are usually close to 0 degrees Celsius. For most of the year, the temperature is around 7-15 degrees Celsius.
All enzymes act best at a pH close neutral?
This is not true. Different enzymes thrive in completely different pH conditions. Consider the protease pepsin, which works in the stomach. It breaks down proteins in acidities as low as pH 2. In the duodenum, lipase works best in slightly alkaline conditions.
What relationship would you expect to find between the air temperature and dewpoint temperature at ground level is the area is covered by fog?
The relationship that you expect to find between the air temperature and dew point temperature at ground level if the area is covered by fog is the temperatures of th air and the dew point would be very close in value.
What is the temperature of constellation Aquarius?
Constellations do not have temperatures. They are made up of individual stars that may seem to be close together as viewed from Earth, but the individual stars are usually separated by very great distances.
In what temperatures can you fly a hot air-balloon?
hot air balloons work the best in cold temperature. the reason why is because if the outside temperature is close to the temperature in the hot air balloon, it will be as if the flame isn't on. if it is cold outside, the flame makes a much bigger impact and the balloon will go up faster.
