What best describes a likely result for the digestive system if digestive acids and enzymes are weakened?
really
Membrane-enclosed vesicles that contain digestive enzymes best describe the?
Lysosomes
When do enzymes work best in biological processes?
Enzymes work best in biological processes when they are at their optimal temperature and pH levels.
Why does the body stay at 37 degrees?
Enzymes work best at this temperature.
What is the best food for th digestive system?
A squash is the best food for that
At what temperature do plant enzymes work best?
Enzymes work best at temperatures around body temperature. If the temperature is too low, there is too little kinetic energy available for it, but if it is too high, the enzyme will be denatured, and will therefore also work slower. Enzymes work best at temperatures around body temperature. If the temperature is too low, there is too little kinetic energy available for it, but if it is too high, the enzyme will be denatured, and will therefore also work slower.
At what temperature do human enzymes work best at?
Enzymes in the human body work best at human body temperature, so about 35-40 degrees (Celsius). A lower temperature would have too low of an effect to be able to sustain life, and a higher temperature causes the enzyme to denature (unravel) and be rendered ineffective.
Pepsin functions best in what part of the digestive system?
mouth
What determines the effectiveness of enzymes?
The effectiveness of enzymes is determined by factors such as temperature, pH, substrate concentration, and enzyme concentration. Enzymes work optimally within a specific range of these factors and can become less effective or denatured if conditions stray too far from the ideal range. Additionally, the specificity of an enzyme for its substrate also plays a key role in its effectiveness.
Does digestive enzymes in a lysosome work best in a neutral than a basic?
These enzymes function best in a acidic environment, with a pH of about 4.5. So the answer is yes, they would function better in a neutral environment of a pH of 7 (like in the cytosol of a cell). Where than in a basic environment these enzymes, which are proteins, would most likely denature and not be functional. -First year unniversity student
Can temperature affect enzymes?
Yes, temperature does affect the activity of enzymes. If the temperature increases too much, the enzyme can denature (unfold) itself which will move key amino acids necessary for enzymatic function away from each other, preventing enzymatic activity.
What best describes the exocrine function of the pancreas?
The exocrine function of the pancreas involves producing digestive enzymes and bicarbonate that are released into the small intestine to help break down food. These enzymes help to digest carbohydrates, proteins, and fats in the food we eat.
