Biology

lara31 [8.8K]3 years ago
8 0
In a hydrolysis reaction, water (H2O) is added to a bond and cleaves the bond holding molecules together, breaking polymers into 2 pieces. In total, you take a water molecule and split it among the two parts, H+ and OH-. These ions get added to either side with the higher affinity for the cation (H+) and anion (OH-).

How is the shape of an enzyme related to its function?
erastova [34]
Function of an enzyme is to lower reaction's activation energy and to increase speed of a reaction, but to make it happen, enzyme and substrate must fit spatially. The shape of an enzyme is essential to make enzyme-substrate complex - if active site of an enzyme doesn't fit to substrate, there won't be a enzyme-catalised reaction.
