BartSMP [9]2 years ago

The two types of enzymes are apoenzymes and holoenzymes on the basis of their activity state.

Enzymes are the proteinaceous molecules that speed up the biochemical reaction taking place inside living systems.

Apoenzymes are the catalytically inactive form of the enzyme that is present in the cells when the enzyme is not required. It activates upon the binding of a cofactor. Apoenzymes are not capable of catalyzing a reaction. It is considered an incomplete enzyme.

Holoenzymes are the active form of enzymes. When the enzyme binds to the cofactor, it is the catalytically active form known as the holoenzyme. It is considered the complete enzyme.

Apoenzymes form when the cofactor or coenzyme is removed from the active site of the enzyme and only the protein component is left alone, it is catalytically inactive.

From deep to superficial, the order of the strata of the epidermis is corneum - granulosum - lucidum - spinosum - basale. spinos
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

basale - spinosum - granulosum - lucidum - corneum.  

Explanation:

The order of strata in the epidermis:

  • Basale: it is the deepest stratum. It has one layer of cells called keratinocytes, which are stem cells for the epidermis.
  • Spinosum: The keratinocytes in this layer have spiny shapes. They synthesize cytokeratin and lipids. In this layer, we can also find macrophages.
  • Granulosum: The keratinocytes of the previous layer ascend and synthesize keratohyalin, which is in granules. The keratohyalin helps to join keratin filaments. Also, the cells release the lipids synthesized in the previous layer, and they form a barrier that stops dehydration.
  • Lucidum: it is only on thick skin, like the one in the sole of the feet. The keratinocytes in this layer have expelled the nucleus and now are dead cells. The keratinocytes have a flat shape and form a thin layer.
  • Corneum: it is the most superficial layer. It is made of dead keratinocytes filled with keratin in their cytoplasm. It is a thick layer that suffers desquamation when new dead cells filled with keratin ascend from the previous layer.
