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.

Answer:

At first, we should know their molecular formula and symbol. In case of element, symbols are written. But in case of compound, molecular formula is used. Also we should know their coefficient (number) to make the number of atoms either side equal.

Answer:

The answer to your question is letter B. Photosynthesis

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a chemical process by which plants and other microorganisms use energy from the sun to produce glucose, water and carbon dioxide. After that, glucose is converted into Pyruvate which goes into Glycolysis and the Krebs cycle.

This description mentions that from simple molecules organisms can to form more complex structures.

Ivahew [28]

The correct answer is A. Experimental group

Explanation:

In experiments, the experimental group refers to the group of subjects that receives special treatment or in which the scientist or researcher intervenes. This is the opposite of a control group that does not receive treatment and therefore, it is used as a reference to measure the effect of the treatment.

This implies, in the experiment presented Group A is the control group as they do not have special treatment because they sleep normally and Group B is the experimental group as the researcher modifies their sleep time and reduces it two hours which means in this group there is a treatment or intervention.
