Do Termites produce more CO2 than human's burning of fossil fuels?

No, termites do not produce more CO2 than human burning of fossil fuels. It is estimated that human burning of fossil fuels is the largest source of CO2 emissions, contributing significantly to climate change. Termites do produce some CO2 as part of their natural digestion process, but it is not on the same scale as human activities.


Enzymes have optimal temperatures.most human enzymes have an optimal temperature of about?

The optimal temperature of enzymes in humans is about 37c, the same as the human body's temperature. However, some enzymes work at higher temperatures than 37 but not very high because higher temperatures denatures (destroy) the enzymes.


What human functions are enzymes involved in?

Enzymes are involved in a variety of human functions, including digestion, respiration, metabolism, and immune response. They speed up chemical reactions in the body by lowering the activation energy required for a reaction to occur. Enzymes are essential for many biological processes to take place efficiently.


How many enzymes does the human body make?

"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 :)


Are bacterial enzymes diffrerent from human enzymes?

Yes, bacterial enzymes are different from human enzymes in terms of structure, function, and specificity. Bacterial enzymes may have evolved to function optimally in the bacterial cell environment and may catalyze reactions specific to bacterial metabolism. This is why bacterial enzymes are often used in industrial applications where their unique properties can be harnessed for various processes.

E. coli that contains the genes for human insulin is?

E. coli that contains the gene for human insulin is genetically engineered, transgenic, and a GMO. Bacteria have been engineered to produce chymotrypsin, make human insulin, produce enzymes that increase shelf life of bread, and to produce enzymes that improve the taste and clarity of beer.


What enzymes are present in human bodies?

There is a huge amount of enzyme types in the human body. We have digestive enzymes such as pepsinogen, cardiac enzymes such as Trop-I, liver enzymes such as GGT. If you are curious of enzymes in the human body I suggest you look at specific systems or organs. An example would be to ask the internets about "pancreatic enzymes".


Where are enzymes contained in the human body?

Enzymes are present throughout the body.


Where are enzymes in your human body?

Everywhere.


List 10 enzymes that are found in the human body?

Amylase- breaks bonds between carbohydrate molecules.Maltase- they target the sugars maltose, sucrose, and lactose to produce monosaccharides.Elastase- targets elastase to produce short-chain peptides.Trypsin- acts on proteins and polypeptides to produce short-chain peptides.Lipase- targets triglycerides to produce fatty acids and monoglycerides.


What are the Functions in the enzymes of the body?

The main function of the enzymes in the human body is to activate metabolic processes. These processes are what sustains the human life.

What is the largest organ in a human?

The largest human organ is not actually "in" a human it is "on" a human. It is your skin, called the epidermis. "Inside" your body the liver is the largest organ.
