What else can I help you with?
Do mucous membranes contain enzymes?
Yes, things such as LYSOZOMES (antiseptic in saliva).
What is the process by which immune cells engulf and then destroy bacteria known as?
The process by which immune cells engulf and destroy bacteria is called phagocytosis. This involves the immune cell recognizing the bacteria as foreign, engulfing it into a membrane-bound vesicle called a phagosome, and then fusing the phagosome with lysosomes containing enzymes to destroy the bacteria.
Proteins that act as biological catalysts are called?
Proteins that act as biological catalyst are called enzymes.
What are enzymes inside of cells called?
Enzymes are proteins, which are comprised of chains of amino acids. All enzymes are proteins (but not all proteins are enzymes)
Do special lysosomes in the macrophage cell contain digestive enzymes that can destroy invading bacteria?
Yes, macrophages contain lysosomes that contain digestive enzymes such as lysozyme and proteases. These enzymes help the macrophages break down and destroy invading bacteria and other pathogens.
What are enzymes called that destroy the cells DNA and cytoskeleton producing a quick death of the cell called?
Enzymes that destroy cells' DNA and cytoskeleton, leading to rapid cell death, are known as caspases. These enzymes play a crucial role in the process of programmed cell death, or apoptosis.
Single-cell microscopic animals that release enzymes or toxins that destroy cells are called?
helminths
What is the function of enzymes in living thing?
The function of enzymes in living things is to catalyze (instigate, speed up) chemical reactions.
What to enzymes do?
Enzymes attach to things called substrates to help speed up the reaction. Only certain enzymes match the shape of certain substrates.
Do mucous membranes contain enzymes?
Yes, things such as LYSOZOMES (antiseptic in saliva).
What are the DNA things called in destroy all humans?
brain stems
why do bacteria have restriction enzymes?
to destroy viral DNA
What is the reason why pH effects enzymes?
If the pH is to low meaning its too acidic, or if the pH is to high meaning its too basic it can slow down the enzyme even destroy it. Never say kill, as enzymes are not living things.
What is the process by which immune cells engulf and then destroy bacteria known as?
The process by which immune cells engulf and destroy bacteria is called phagocytosis. This involves the immune cell recognizing the bacteria as foreign, engulfing it into a membrane-bound vesicle called a phagosome, and then fusing the phagosome with lysosomes containing enzymes to destroy the bacteria.
What produces enzymes that destroy free radicals?
Antioxidant enzymes like superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase are produced by the body to neutralize and destroy free radicals. These enzymes help prevent cellular damage and oxidative stress caused by free radicals.
Proteins that act as biological catalysts are called?
Proteins that act as biological catalyst are called enzymes.
What are enzymes inside of cells called?
Enzymes are proteins, which are comprised of chains of amino acids. All enzymes are proteins (but not all proteins are enzymes)
