There may be several, but alcohol dehydrogenase is of critical importance. It's the reason why men can drink more, per pound, than women can before they become intoxicated. They have higher activity levels of alcohol dehydrogenase, which is necessary to metabolize alcohol.

What are some environmental enzyme factors?
Enzymes are catalysts that speed up chemical reactions. Some environmental factors that can affect enzyme activity are temperature and pH levels.
What are 4 factors that can regulate enzyme activity?
pH, temperature, concentration of substrate, incubation period
What does the wrong pH do to the shape of an enzyme?
It will affect the shape and lead to reduced activity.
Some factors that may influence enzyme activity?
A low temperature can slow down enzyme activity and high temperatures can denature an enzyme making it unusable. pH levels also affect enzyme activity. Every cell has an ideal temperature and pH
How does pH affect enzyme activity Use the enzymes pepsin and trypsin as examples?
Enzymes work within a range of pH levels. Pepsin, which is found in the stomach works in an acidic environment, while trypsin functions in a basic surrounding in the intestines. Increasing or decreasing the pH levels can stop the activity of these enzymes.
The enzyme phosphofructokinase is an important enzyme that plays a significant regulatory role in glycolysis. Which of the following conditions would be expected to result in increased activity of this enzyme?
Low levels of ATP

pH, temperature, concentration of substrate, incubation period
What is The role of buffer in restriction digestion reactions?
I believe that it is used to stabilize the pH levels so the enzyme activity isn't effected.
Define total enzyme concentration?
The optimum pH and optimum temperatures of an enzyme are simply levels that the enzyme work most effectively at. These levels contribute to factors such as the enzyme's protein structure. Different levels of pH and temperature can alter the integrity of the protein, this process is called denaturation. When an enzyme undergoes denaturation, its level of activity is inhibited by failure of the substrate to effectively attach itself to the active site.
What does the wrong pH do to the shape of an enzyme?
It will affect the shape and lead to reduced activity.
What are normal liver enzyme levels for a rabbit?
The normal liver enzyme levels for a rabbit should be 40 percent. Cyanide exposure improves the rabbit's enzyme level.

Why do Asians get drunk faster and sober faster?
A larger percentage of persons of Asian decent, have a dominant gene mutation which interferes with the role of an enzyme called acetaldehyde dehydrogenase. The role of this enzyme is to convert acetaldehyde, a metabolite of ethanol (alcohol), into acetic acid. Persons with this mutation therefore experience higher levels of acetaldehyde in their systems when they consume alcohol.

What are the four levels of economic activity?
i believe that the levels of economic activity is 1.primary activity 2.secondary activity 3.tertiary activity 4.quaternary activity
Why do less Americans not increase their activity levels?
Americans do less activity because it do not increase their activity levels because of the physical activity they do is not enough.
