What else can I help you with?
What part of the enzyme gives each enzyme its unique function?
i think it's the shape of the active site, the region where the enzyme comes into direct contact with the substrate. the shape of the active site is in turn determined by the structure of the enzyme, which is determined by the number and sequence of amino acids in the primary strucutre.(note that pH affects the shape of the active site as well.) just my guess.
Is bananas turning black a chemical or physical reaction?
The answer is actually microorganisms.In school we did a topic about it so it will be chemicals. Aleema hope it helpedxx
Why do enzymes react?
The molecule that an enzyme react with, works on, is called a substrate. The substrate varies from one enzyme to another. The active site is the 3-D shape on the enzyme where a substrate binds for the reaction to take place.
How do competitive inhibitors stop a chemical reaction?
Inhibitors decrease the rate of a reaction. However the use of inhibitors can be useful in decreasing the rates of unwanted side reactions. For instance if Chemical A could turn into chemical B or chemical C, but chemical C was useless, an inhibitor could be used to reduce the amount of C formed and maximise the amount of B produced from A. This is especially important in industrial processes, where undesired products waste reactant and thus money.
What is a chemical change for a potato?
When you cut a potato and expose it to air, the enzyme catalase in the potato reacts with oxygen to produce compounds like catechol and quinone. These compounds cause the potato to turn brown, indicating a chemical change has occurred.
Chemical mechanisms that can turn off or reduce an enzyme are?
These chemicals are called competitive inhibitors.

How can enzyme activity be regulated?
Enzymes are catalytic molecules that speed up the rates of reactions.(a) Explain why enzymes are necessary in biological systems.(b) Discuss three control mechanisms that regulate enzymatic activity.A) Enzymes decrease the amount of activation energy required for chemical reactions to occur.B) 1. Cofactors and Coenzymes- Inorganic ions and non protein organic molecules that are necessary to be present on the active site for some enzymes to work. These cofactors participate in the reaction and may even accept or contribute atoms to the reactions.2. Competitive and Noncompetitive inhibition- Limits the enzyme activity. This occurs when a molecule binds to an enzyme, either on the active site or allosteric site, and decreases its activity.3. Allosteric Regulation- Causes a different shape in the enzyme. May either inhibit or stimulate an enzymes activity.
What is aldolase?
Aldolase is an enzyme found throughout the body, particularly in muscles. Like all enzymes, it is needed to trigger specific chemical reactions. Aldolase helps muscle turn sugar into energy.
What does vitamins turn into when broken down by an enzyme?
Chuck Norris's Grandmother

Can one enzymes be used for many different type of chemical reactions?
yes because it gets substrates that fit in and then when those product turn into more products the enzyme just moves on making more products

What does a enzyme do in chemical reaction?
An enzyme generally lowers the activation energy necessary for a reaction to proceed. This in turn may cause more of the reactants to go to products.
Do lawnmowers turn electrical energy into chemical energy?
No, they turn chemical or electrical into kenetic energy
What substance is composed of amino acids?
Polypeptide, which will turn into an active protein or an enzyme.
