A catalyst is a substance that alters the equilibrium of a reaction, often at ordinary temperatures and pressure, which is what an enzyme does.
Incidentally, they are said to be catalytic.
THat is a good question. Currently carbohydrates can not serve as catalyst and would be a great discovery if they did. Currently proteins, DNA, and RNA only have catalystic properties. -Organic Chemist
Since enzymes, being proteins, do not fit the definition of living organisms, they do not respire. That having been said, enzymes do indeed play a vital role in the process of both aerobic and anaerobic cellular respiration. They are not alive and so do not respire, but respiration could not occur without their help.
In the Amoeba Sisters video recap on enzymes, key points include that enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions without being consumed in the process. They work by lowering the activation energy needed for reactions, and each enzyme is specific to a particular substrate. Factors such as temperature, pH, and concentration can affect enzyme activity. Additionally, enzymes can be denatured, losing their functionality when conditions are not ideal.
Proteins that act as biological catalyst are called enzymes.
Enzymes are proteins but not all proteins are enzymes.
Yes
Violation of Federal law to do so
Could be your catalystic converter messing up.
wtf i dont know this crap
Two catalytic converters, a left side and a right side.
Quite a common problem when the cat fails replacement is the only cure
It will run, But not right and the check engine light will come on. It needs the converter.
I saw it said enzymes it could be cheese or sumthin else
My Biology teacher said "They speed up the rate at which all parts react"
The enzymes a group of proteins secreted by or into the digestive tract and help to act on the ingested food to break it down to simpler compounds for absorption and assimilation. Some enzymes just speed up the work of other enzymes and are said to have catalytic effect. The enzymes may act as pro-enzymes. The enzymes are not always breaking down complex food particles but some also join simpler particles to make complex and storable food or tissue.
There should be one located between the converter and muffler if you have a V-6 model
