Answer:
I'm pretty sure it's a protein building block
Answer: The correct option is (the region of an enzyme that attaches to a substrate).
Explanation:
The anabolic and catabolic processes in a cell are directed and regulated by enzymes. An enzyme has the ability to speed up a metabolic reaction by lowering the amount of energy needed to start the reaction. Without enzymes, these processes would be extremely slow. They also arrange the reacting molecules in a manner that will cause the chemical change to take place rapidly. It does so through the following steps:
--> molecules of substrate combine with the enzyme at its active site.
--> the substrate molecules combine with enzyme molecules for a short time, forming an enzyme-substrate complex.
--> New substance ( product) is formed which leaves the active site of the enzyme thereby making it free for another reaction to take place.
In conclusion, the ACTIVE SITE of an enzyme is the region of an enzyme that attaches to a substrate allowing chemical reaction to take place.
Antarctic fish species requires an adaptation to cold environment. Living at cold temperature environment would demand certain biological responses such as cutaneous respiration, enlarged blood vessels, and producing greater amounts of fat. Most of these fat are composed of higher phospolipid levels which are primarily due to phosphatidylethanolamine. This phospolipid is responsible for destabilizing cell membranes and make it more fluid thereby allowing unrestricted blood flow. The fatty acid composition of the membrane lipid is important for membrane fluidity, this is mainly attributed to unsaturated fatty acids which are responsible for decreasing the order of membrane lipids thereby decreasing viscosity. At extremely low temperatures, organisms with low concentration of unsaturated fatty acids would freeze cell membranes. That's why antarctic fishes have higher levels of unsaturated fatty acids.
Conclusion this is how the nervous system in human
