What is the formula for protease?

Protease is an enzyme. It is essentially a protein. Protease is not a compound and therefore its formula cannot be given out. Protease are a class of enzymes involved in digesting proteins. The basic mode of action can be described as: Protein + Protease -----> Digested protein + protease Since enzymes do not react in a biochemical reaction (they are merely catalysis), protease appears on both sides of the reaction shown above


What is a biological agent that cannot reproduce on its own?

Virus


Can carbon containing molecules create sulfur?

No, they cannot.


Why cant the enzyme protease speed up the formation of maltose from two glucose molecules?

Protease is an enzyme that specifically catalyzes the breakdown of proteins into smaller peptides or amino acids, not carbohydrates. The formation of maltose from two glucose molecules requires a different type of enzyme called glycosyltransferase, which facilitates the glycosidic bond formation between the glucose units. Therefore, protease cannot speed up this reaction because it does not have the appropriate active site or function to interact with carbohydrate substrates.


Why is there no virus kingdom?

Viruses are not considered living organisms because they cannot carry out essential life processes on their own, such as reproduction and metabolism. They require a host cell to replicate and cannot exist independently. Therefore, they are not classified within traditional biological classification systems like kingdoms.

What active ingredients do stain removers must have in order to take out a stain?

This question cannot be answered. 'Stain' is not one particular sort of thing. What will remove it depends on its exact nature. Some can be removed by finding a suitable solvent, e.g. methylated spirits for ball point ink. Others require chemical attack to break down the molecules, e.g. protease enzymes in biological washing powders for blood stains. Sometimes bleaches will work. In-wash stain removers often contain chemicals akin to hydrogen peroxide which act as a mild bleach.


Why is washing your skin so important?

Washing your skin is important so that bacteria cannot get into your body and cause diseases. Also, not washing your skin can cause an unpleasant odor to disturb your coworkers.
