<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

<em>A cofactor is any non-protein substance required for a protein to be catalytically active. Some cofactors are inorganic, such as the metal atoms zinc, iron, and copper in various oxidation states. Others, such as most vitamins, are organic.</em>

A type of aneurysm in which blood leaks between layers of the vessel wall, tearing them apart, is called
olga2289 [7]

An aneurysm that divides the three layers of the artery wall, as opposed to inflating out the entire wall, is known as a dissecting aneurysm.

<h3>What causes an aneurysm to form?</h3>

Multiple circumstances that lead to the breakdown of the well-organized structural elements (proteins) of the aortic wall, which maintain and stabilize the wall, can result in an aneurysm. Uncertainty surrounds the precise cause. Aneurysmal disease is thought to be significantly influenced by atherosclerosis, which is the hardening of the arteries with plaque.

Surgical intervention can be required since an aneurysm may continue to grow in size and the arterial wall may deteriorate over time. One of the objectives of therapy is to prevent aneurysm rupture. The risk of an aneurysm rupturing increases with its size (bursting). A rupture could lead to fatal hemorrhage (uncontrolled bleeding), which is life-threatening.

A (n) inhibitor has a structure that is so similar to the substrate that it can bond to the enzyme just like the substrate. 2. a
Studentka2010 [4]
The answers are as follows:
1. <span>An inhibitor has a structure that is so similar to the substrate that it can bond to the enzyme just like the substrate: t</span>his is called competitive inhibitor. A competitive inhibitor will compete with the substrate for the active site of the enzyme and bind to the active site, thus incapacitating the substrate from binding to the active site.
2.  An inhibitor binds to a site on the enzyme that is not the active site: this is called non competitive inhibitors. Non competitive inhibitors bind to other site in the enzyme which is not the active site of the enzyme. The binding of the inhibitor changes the conformation of the enzyme as well as the active site, thus making it impossible for the substrate to bind to the enzyme effectively.
3. <span>usually, a(n) inhibitor forms a covalent bond with an amino acid side group within the active site, which prevents the substrate from entering the active site or prevents catalytic activity: this is called irreversible or permanent inhibition. Permanent inhibitors form covalent bonds with the enzyme and prevent substrate from binding to the enzyme.
4. T</span><span>he competitive inhibitor competes with the substrate for the ACTIVE SITE on the enzyme: The active site of an enzyme is the place where the substrate normally bind in order to activate a enzyme. Competitive inhibitors are those inhibitors that compete with the substrate for the active site of the enzyme and prevent the substrate from binding there.
5. W</span><span>hen the noncompetitive inhibitor is bonded to the enzyme, the shape of the ENZYME is distorted. The non competitive inhibitors are those inhibitors that bind to other places in the enzyme instead of the active site. The binding of the non competitive inhibitor usually distort the shape and the conformation of the enzyme thus preventing the substrate from binding to it effectively.
6. E</span><span>nzyme inhibitors disrupt normal interactions between an enzyme and its SUBSTRATE. The principal function of enzyme inhibitor is to prevent the substrate from binding to the appropriate enzyme. This is usually done in the human system in order to regulate the activities of enzymes.</span>
