Each enzyme has a temperature at which it works best. A slight increase in temperature can increase enzyme activity while a larg

e increase in temperature can cause the enzyme to become denatured. Which of the following best explains what happens when a protein becomes denatured? ...?
The enzyme absorbs heat until the temperature decreases, and the reaction then continues normally.

The enzyme breaks apart into the amino acids that originally combined to form the enzyme.

The enzyme loses its shape and is no longer able to catalyze chemical reactions.

The enzyme unfolds and refolds into a different shape, and is used to catalyze a different chemical reaction.

Answer:

Option (3).

Explanation:

Enzymes are the  bio catalyst that can increase the rate of a bio chemical reaction without themselves going under any change. Enzyme decreases the activation energy of the reaction and increases the rate of reaction.

Denaturation of protein results in the loss of biological activity of enzyme. The enzyme loses its shape and cannot catalyze the reactions as enzymes are shape specific.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).

Regan is trying to determine if an unknown element is a metal. She does not want to damage or change the physical appearance of
34kurt

Explanation:

Well, one could use a magnet to see if it's ferrous. One could melt it to check which type it is, use a metal detector, or just use their senses: If it dings or clinks like metal, and feels like it’s texture. If it polishes with metal polish, is reflective, can be shaped or shape when heated… It usually is a metal. If it rusts, or oxidizes, it is or contains metal. If it “smells" like metal, most likely, it is metal. Finally, if it walks like metal, and quacks like metal, most likely we have a metal
