What is the ability of a substance to oppose or slow down electric current?
Insulators typically slow the movement of electrons through an electric current. Bad conductors, such as rubber, can be used to slow, stop, and/or redirect electric current.CommentInsulators do not 'slow down', 'stop', or 'redirect' current! Simply put, insulators don't have enough charge carriers to support conduction.
Can lactase break down cellulose?
Yes, lactase can definitely break down cellulose. In fact, when the lactase works to break down the cellulose, it breaks the cellulose down into two different monomers.

What reaction takes place when extracting elements from a compound?
A decomposition reaction breaks down a compound into its elements. For example, when an electric current is passed through water, it decomposes into hydrogen gas and oxygen gas. 2H2O --electrolysis--> 2H2 + O2
