Which is the main reason cells are replaced in the body?. The cells are too large.. The cells are inactive.. The cells are damag
anygoal [31]

The right answer is The cells are damaged.

Take the example of skin cells.  

The skin consists of two tissues:

* the outermost, the epidermis, resting on a vascularized connective tissue,

* the dermis.

In the epidermis, which includes several layers of cells, the outer layer is formed of dead cells that are desquamating and are constantly being replaced from proliferating basal cell cells. So, in normal conditions, the epidermis is in constant renewal.

On the other hand, when accidentally, the upper parts of the epidermis are damaged, for example, a slight abrasion or of a burn, the destroyed portion is regenerated (replaced) thanks to an accelerated proliferation of basal epidermal cells .

Two enzyme-controlled reactions are shown.
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

D. Enzymes only break down large molecules.

Explanation:

Enzymes are the substances which helps in the broken down of large food molecules into small molecules. It is because our body is not able to absorb large food molecules, these large molecules are broken down into small molecules with the help of enzymes. Carbohydrate is broken down into glucose by amylase and protein is broken down into amino acids by protease.  Enzyme is non-living in nature and used as a  catalyst in order to speed up the chemical reaction.
