Nearly every chemical reaction in the body is activated - assisted - and controlled by?

enzymes. Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions in living organisms by lowering the activation energy required for the reaction to occur. They are specific to particular substrates and play a crucial role in metabolism and other biochemical processes in the body.


What type of protein regulates nearly all chemical reaction in a cell?

Enzymes are the type of protein that regulate nearly all chemical reactions in a cell by speeding up the reactions. They act as catalysts and play a vital role in maintaining cellular function and metabolism.


How do you use the words chemical reactant and product in a sentence?

Chemical: Vinegar contains the chemical, Acetic acid. Reactant: The limiting reactant weight was used to calculate the percentage yield of the product. Product: The product was nearly pure from just washing alone, following the reaction.

Why is there a temperature changes when alkali is added to vinegar?

When an alkali (base) is added to vinegar, the acetic acid in the vinegar reacts with the alkali. These reactions are nearly all exothermic, that is, they generate heat as the chemical reaction proceeds. This is observed by a change in the temperature of the aqueous solution and the surrounding air.


What is a limiting agent?

In many chemical reactions, there are two reactants. In nearly every case, one of those two reactants "runs out" first, and at that point, the chemical reaction stops, because in order for it to happen, both reactants must be present to react with each other. As soon as the one reactant runs out, the reaction is over, and you have product(s) and one left over reactant. The reactant that runs out first is the limiting reactant. The leftovers are the excess reactant.


What type of protein regulates nearly all chemical reactions in the cell?

That protein would be an enzyme.


How temperature affect the rate of reaction?

Higher temperature increases rateFor the very large majority of chemical reactions, increasing the temperature increases the rate of the reaction. This is because nearly all chemical reactions have some activation barrier which must be surmounted before the reaction can proceed, and the added temperature helps to get over this barrier. There are however some processes which do not speed up with increased temperature, although there much fewer. The freezing of water is one obvious example.AnswerHeating chemical substances can make the molecules separate and move around faster. This can increase the speed with which they mix with surrounding molecules from other chemical substances, thus speeding up a reaction. This is not always the case, some chemicals will only react when cold...While it is true that hotter molecules move faster, it is not the improved mixing that makes reactions occur faster -- otherwise you could just stir more effectively and not have to heat! Heating gives the molecules more energy to surmount the activation energy barrier of the reaction. The more energy the reactants have, the more of them can surmount this barrier, which is required for the reaction to occur. The reason some reactions don't go faster when heated is because they do be activationless or the barrier may be so high that other methods are necessary to give the reactant sufficient energy to surmount the barrier.See the Related Question below for more information.
