Enzymes chemically change the makeup of nutrient into the form that can be used by the cell.

Further Explanation:

<u>The enzyme</u> is the biological catalyst that participates in the chemical reaction occurring in the body of the organism. Most of them are made up of proteins.

The enzyme binds to the substrate or the reactant and then converting it into the product. They decreases the <u>activation energy</u> of the reaction. This allows the reactant to easily achieve the transition energy.

<u>Enzyme </u>acts by chemically altering the nutrient make up such that they get changed into the form which can readily be used by the cell.

<u>Amino acids</u> are the monomeric subunit of a polymer known as protein. These amino acids are linked to each other by the peptide linkage. The proteins are acted upon by the proteases which then converts them into the amino acids.

<u>Carbohydrate </u>is the biomolecule that provides energy to the body. The different types of carbohydrate are:

  • Monosaccharide
  • Disaccharide
  • Polysaccharide

Nutrients are the molecules such as carbohydrate, protein and lipids that provide energy to the body.

The answer to this question would be: <span>by converting glucose to glycogen. 

Brain cells only able to use energy from glucose, so if the body glucose level is too low the brain cells can't work as it doesn't get any energy/food. When glucose level is decreased, the liver will start to convert glycogen into glucose to keep the glucose level.</span>
