What are the Functions in the enzymes of the body?

The main function of the enzymes in the human body is to activate metabolic processes. These processes are what sustains the human life.


Why is there so little difference in normal human body temperature while humans vary so much in most of their other traits?

For enzymes in the human body to function, they must be at a certain temperature. About 37degrees Celsius and 98.6 degrees fahrenheit. If it is any greater, the enzymes will denature. any lower, and they won't be able to function. So, in general, human body temp. is pretty constant.


What is the main function of protein in the human body?

Proteins are essential for various functions in the human body, including building and repairing tissues, supporting immune function, and serving as enzymes for chemical reactions.


Enzymes have optimal temperatures.most human enzymes have an optimal temperature of about?

The optimal temperature of enzymes in humans is about 37c, the same as the human body's temperature. However, some enzymes work at higher temperatures than 37 but not very high because higher temperatures denatures (destroy) the enzymes.


What role does the coenzyme play as a cofactor in the enzymatic reactions of the human body?

Coenzymes act as helpers to enzymes in the human body by assisting in the chemical reactions that enzymes catalyze. They help enzymes function properly and efficiently by transferring chemical groups or electrons between molecules.

What enzymes are present in human bodies?

There is a huge amount of enzyme types in the human body. We have digestive enzymes such as pepsinogen, cardiac enzymes such as Trop-I, liver enzymes such as GGT. If you are curious of enzymes in the human body I suggest you look at specific systems or organs. An example would be to ask the internets about "pancreatic enzymes".
