What do cells need in order to perform their function?
energy
Why is the sturcture of an enzyme so important?
It is important because with any shape its no use like a can, without a can opener you can't use the food in the can that's why its important that enzymes have a specific structure like a key to unlocking a specific lock, so it can use that enzyme
Why does the body need so many different enzymes?
A large number of reactions occur in the cell, many of which requiring enzymes to work. From the creation of the ATP used to energize the cell to the creation of proteins from RNA, each new type of reaction needs its own enzyme to work, and often need dozens if not hundreds of that enzyme to do the reaction at the pace it needs.
Are enzymes changed in a reaction?
No, enzymes are not changed in a chemical reaction. They remain unchanged and are able to participate in multiple reaction cycles. Enzymes act as catalysts to speed up reactions without being consumed or altered in the process.
If an enzyme solution is frozen is the enzyme denatured?
No, freezing does not denature enzymes, however; it does slow the rate at which they are able to catalyse reactions. Denaturation is a permanent change in the conformation of an enzyme that renders it useless while freezing an enzyme only results in a temporary change.

Why would a organ have specialized cells?
In order to perform a specialized function.

What is a function that living things perform in order to stay alive and produce more of their own kind is?
Reproduction is the function that living things perform in order to stay alive and produce more of their own kind. It involves the process of creating offspring to ensure the continuation of the species.
Why must the enzyme exist in a specific type of environment in order to function properly?
Enzymes that are sensitive to changes in their physical or chemical environment, such as changes in pH or temperature will change their shape if placed in suboptimal environments. Most enzymes are proteins, and it's a protein's shape that determines their function. Change the shape, and the enzyme is denatured, and can no longer function for its purpose adequately.
Which of the following is not one of the three basic steps involved in enzyme activity?
"Because their catalytic role renders most enzymes ineffective after their initial activity, a cell must produce large amounts of each enzyme in order to perform effectively." this is incorrect because 99+% of enymes are used until the cells dies because they are costly (in energy terms) to make.
If an enzyme is a protein how might you change the specificity of such an enzyme?
What an enzyme does is based on its shape, therefore you would have to change it on a molecular level in order to alter its job.
Why pH is relevant to an enzyme and function?
QUICK ANSWERLiving organisms depend on a proper balance of hydrogen and hydroxide ions in order to maintain essential physiological processes. Scientists use pH to express the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution. Many organisms have tightly regulated systems to maintain the pH within the required range.
Are enzymes changed in a reaction?
No, enzymes are not changed in a chemical reaction. They remain unchanged and are able to participate in multiple reaction cycles. Enzymes act as catalysts to speed up reactions without being consumed or altered in the process.
What is the function of If function in computer?
"IF" function is used in Microsoft (MS) Excel. It is checking results in order to make a proper decision.The "IF" function is considered a logic function by Excel. It begins with "=IF" and then has three arguments inside parentheses. The arguments are separated from each other through the use of a comma. Here is a breakdown of the components of the "IF" functionCalling the IF function: =IFArgument one: Test/CriteriaArgument two: Perform action if Criteria is found to be trueArgument three: Perform action if Criteria is found to be falseSee the related question below.
What is the enzyme function of restriction enzymes?
We believe the function of the restriction enzyme is to protect an organism from foreign DNA as restriction enzymes cleave DNA strands (making them useless). The idea is that bacteria use this to protect against viral infection as viruses attach to the cell and insert their DNA into it in order to "take over" the cell. Restriction enzymes recognize this DNA as foreign and begin to chop it up, saving the cell.
