Summary. Enzymes are catalysts that, within the mild conditions of temperature, pH, and pressure of the cells, carry out chemical reactions at amazing high rate. They are characterized by a remarkable efficiency and specificity. Substrates are the substances on which enzymes act.

Enzymes are proteins that act as biological catalysts (biocatalysts). Catalysts accelerate chemical reactions. The molecules upon which enzymes may act are called substrates, and the enzyme converts the substrates into different molecules known as products. Almost all metabolic processes in the cell need enzyme catalysis in order to occur at rates fast enough to sustain life.[1]:8.1 Metabolic pathways depend upon enzymes to catalyze individual steps. The study of enzymes is called enzymology and a new field of pseudoenzyme analysis has recently grown up, recognising that during evolution, some enzymes have lost the ability to carry out biological catalysis, which is often reflected in their amino acid sequences and unusual 'pseudocatalytic' properties.

Fofino [41]

Answer:

a. A hypothesis that does not generate a testable prediction is not useful.

Explanation:

In the scientific method, we generate a hypothesis to explain a phenomenon. After this, it is necessary to create a method to test the hypothesis and make predictions. Moving forward, we test this methodology, generating results and reject or not reject the hypothesis. If the hypothesis can't be tested, the scientific method can't be applied.

Describe the view if you were to stand in the penumbra of a lunar eclipse.
madreJ [45]

From within the Moon's penumbra, a partial solar eclipse can be seen. Like any other opaque objects illuminated by a light source, the Moon and the Earth cast shadows into space as they block the sunlight that hits them. Each shadow has 3 different areas: the umbra, the penumbra, and the antumbra.
