they reduce the activation energy required for the reaction to occur
The reaction would be termed a chemical reaction.
Enzymes are biological catalysts. A catalyst speeds up a reaction by lowering the activation energy required. In other words a catalyst offers an alternative pathway to increase the rate of reaction- it is not consumed during a reaction, or affected.
Enzymes
Enzymes are unchanged during chemical reactions as they act as catalysts and do not participate in the reaction itself. Enzymes are reusable as they can catalyze multiple reactions without being consumed in the process.
Enzymes are biological macromolecules that act as catalysts to speed up chemical reactions in living organisms. They do this by lowering the activation energy required for the reaction to occur. Enzymes are often proteins that bind to specific substrates and help convert them into products.
No. Enzymes are not permanently changed in the chemical reactions in which they are involved. After the reaction, they regain their original shape and are free to catalyze another of the same reaction.
Enzymes catalyze certain reactions.
The reaction would be termed a chemical reaction.
Enzymes catalyze reactions by lowering the activation energy required for a chemical reaction to occur. They do this by binding to specific substrates and bringing them together in the correct orientation to facilitate the reaction. This process, known as catalysis, speeds up the reaction without being consumed in the process.
Enzymes are biological catalysts. A catalyst speeds up a reaction by lowering the activation energy required. In other words a catalyst offers an alternative pathway to increase the rate of reaction- it is not consumed during a reaction, or affected.
Enzymes speed up chemical reactions that take place in cells. They are usually named from the reaction that they catalyze.
Enzymes
Enzymes are proteins that speed up chemical reactions by lowering the activation energy required for a reaction to occur. Enzymes are highly specific and can catalyze a wide range of biochemical reactions.
Enzymes are unchanged during chemical reactions as they act as catalysts and do not participate in the reaction itself. Enzymes are reusable as they can catalyze multiple reactions without being consumed in the process.
The function of enzymes in living things is to catalyze (instigate, speed up) chemical reactions.
