Several organs are responsible for making lots of enzymes. The liver makes dozens, but perhaps the most often referred-to organs are those in the digestive system: the small intestine and the pancreas. They release three broad types of enzyme - lipase, carbohydrase and protease. However, each of these three generic groups sub-divides into many, many specific enzymes, all responsible for a specific substrate.

Not all enzymes are proteins. In general they are globular proteins. Enzymes that are proteins are long, linear chains of amino acids that fold to produce a three-dimensional product. Most enzymes can be denaturated, which means that they can be unfolded and inactivated, (by heating or chemical denaturants, which disrupts the three-dimensional structure of the protein.) Depending on the type of the enzyme, denaturation may reversible or irreversible.
Enzymes are built from smaller molecules called amino acids. These amino acids link together in specific sequences to form polypeptide chains, which then fold into unique three-dimensional structures that determine the enzyme's function. There are 20 different amino acids that can be combined in various ways to create the vast array of enzymes found in living organisms.
"There are three classes of enzymes: metabolic enzymes, which run our bodies; digestive enzymes, which digest our food; and food enzymes from raw foods, which start food digestion. Our bodies are run using metabolic enzymes. Enzymes convert the food we eat into chemical structures that can pass through the cell membranes of the cells lining the digestive tract into the bloodstream."Enzymes: are proteins that act as catalysts in mediating and speeding up a specific chemical reaction.Check out this link on the "wisegeek" website:http://www.wisegeek.com/what-are-enzymes.htmIt suggests that there are an estimated 75,000 human enzymes.Quoted using http://www.fruitarian.com/ac/Enzymes.htm and Donovanits a stuffed up question and no one shoud be put threw this stuff in science heheh :)
Proteins, which are one of the three macronutrients, form enzymes that are critical for the thousands of chemical reactions necessary for sustaining life. Enzymes, which are specialized proteins, act as catalysts to speed up biochemical reactions in the body. Without these enzymes, many vital processes, such as digestion and metabolism, would occur too slowly to support life.
The small intestine receives enzymes from the pancreas. It provides digestive enzymes for the breakdown of all three types of foods; carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.
pancrease releases three different enzymes. these are: Proteases - breaks down proteins Amylase - breaks down carbs lipase - breaks down fats
Yes. Enzymes are like little blobs. They are three-dimensional, but microscopic in size.
Proteins are the main organic molecules that make up enzymes. Enzymes are typically composed of long chains of amino acids that are folded into specific three-dimensional shapes to carry out their biological functions.
The three major organ transplants are Heart,Kidney and Liver.
The lungs and kidneys are examples of organs for which there are two in the body. Generally, each organ is different and has different functions.
Squares have four sides, triangles have three.

Well, it depends on where in the body the enzyme is located. however, all enzymes in the human body work within a very narrow temperature scale, they don't all have the exact same optimal temp, but they are close. for instance, enzymes in the scrotum have to be able to work at a temp three degrees or so lower than the average human body temperature.
Enzymes are primarily built from amino acids, which are the monomers that link together to form polypeptide chains. These chains fold into specific three-dimensional structures, allowing enzymes to perform their catalytic functions. There are 20 different amino acids that can be combined in various sequences to create a vast array of enzymes with diverse activities.
