HeLa cells are the human cervical cancer cells that are part of an immortal cell line. It is named after Henrietta Lacks, who was an African American patient suffering from cervical cancer.

It has helped in bringing the attention towards the issue of privacy and scientific research in our society. It has been used to test various drugs in order to determine their effect on the human body. Because of this several new drugs have been produced that saves millions of lives.

Hence, the correct answer would be option A.

Which of the following mechanisms best describes the manner in which lysozyme lowers the energy required for its substrate to re
KIM [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is "by speeding up the rate at which water molecules collide with the substrate".

Explanation:

One of the most common mistakes is to think that enzymes perform the reactions directly, but enzymes act as catalyzers, and the catalysis of hydrolases works by speeding up the rate at which water molecules collide with the substrate. The enzyme lysozyme works under this same premise, and by speeding up the rate of water collision with the substrate, they lower the energy required for its substrate to reach its transition-state conformation. Which ultimately results in the substrate hydrolysis.
