Why is the enzyme-substrate complex usually compared to a “lock and key” model?

Biology
1 answer:
sertanlavr [38]3 years ago
4 0
The enzyme-substrate complex is compared to a lock and key model because the active sight (lock) can only be fit by a certain substrate (key) or else the enzyme will not work. Basically saying that the enzyme is very very specific and if anything is incorrectly shaped even by just 1 millimeter it won't work.

Which best explains how the body mantens homeostats)
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

All systems work together to stabilize the body.

Explanation:

Certain systems work with each other in order to maintain homeostasis, which is essential for the body. For example, when blood circulates through the digestive system, it picks up nutrients absorbed by the body during its last meal. Additionally, blood carries oxygen taken in by the lungs. The circulatory system works with the respiratory system here to distribute oxygen to other parts of the body.
