How do enzymes affect the activation energy of a reaction

1 answer:

3 0

Catalysts lower the Activation energy for reactions. The lower the activation energy for a reaction,the faster the rate. Thus enzymes speed up reactions by lowering activation energy. Many enzymes change shape when substrate ms bind.

Explanation:

(3) active transport

The molecules would be moving against their concentration gradient from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration.

While cells facilitate the transport of molecules via movement across the cell membrane, there many different mechanisms. These include passive diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and passive transport. However some very large molecules require specialized type of active transport, which requires energy in the form of ATP, in order to move substances across the membrane against their concentration gradient.

Active transport is a mediated process that requires an energy input and the use of specialized membrane proteins to move against the concentration gradient. These proteins require energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate or ATP in order to facilitate necessary conformational changes to the large protein molecules to alter the spatial location of the molecule. For instance, with Na+, K+ pumps in cell membranes.

I recommend you to try analyzing this excerpt in order to compile your own response towards the depicted situation. As for me, there is one stated truth: if someone is really wise and assured that his sphere of occupation is reasonable , this person would never persuade people to believe him/ her and stand on his/her side, because this person does not have doubts about that. Does not matter in what such people believe, they do not have to prove it to anyone who does not shares their views.

Answer: herbivore, eukaryote, primary consumer

Explanation:

The red squirrel can be described by the following features.

1. Herbivore: A herbivore is an animal which is dependent upon the plant and their products for it's food requirement. Here, the red squirrel is the herbivore because it is dependent upon the spruce tree seeds for their food requirement.

2. Eukaryote: A eukaryotic organism is the one which has well define nucleus and encloses the genetic material in the nucleus. The red squirrel is a complex eukaryotic organism.

3. Primary consumer: In a food chain a primary consumer is an organism which is dependent upon plants and their food products for energy and food needs. The red squirrel is the primary consumer this is because of the fact that it consumes on the seeds of the spruce trees.
