Yes. The shape (and size) of a molecule determines the physical and chemical properties of that substance.
Biochemical reactions, for example, is greatly effected by size and shape of molecules. The senses also depend on molecule shape and size!
Biology is linked with chemistry, which we call biochemistry.Molecular structure is necessary to understand the functioning and the ingredients in the cells of different organisms including plants.
The shape of an Enzyme gives it its function. Each individual enzymes has only one purpose that it can do over and over again. If the shape is changed then the enzyme is weaken or even disabled.
The shape of a protein is extremely important. Your body is essentially made of proteins, allowing you to move, absorb energy, and send signals throughout your body. There are 20 amino acids that can form, and proteins are made up of different sequences of these amino acids. Therefore, because proteins are made of the same materials, the overall sequence of amino acids changes the shape of a protein, thereby changing its function in the cell.
the shape of a molecule helps predict its properties, as well as differentiating it from other molecules with identical formulas. ;)

it defines a specific structure and function. Pg 42
The shapes of molecules reflect their content and allow them to fit together with other molecules in unique ways to form new compounds.
globules or fibrils.
it binds with several signaling molecules as it has shape that is complementary to signaling molecules.
It has lost its active 3D structure and therefore it is not functional anymore.

i had this in my year nine chem class. the protein molecules change shape. you're wecome!
Some chemical reactions depend on the shape of molecules and the study of the shape of molecules - requires knowledge of trigonometry.
