Question

Enzymes function most efficiently at the temperature of a typical cell, which is 37 degrees celsius. increases or decreases in temperature can significantly lower the reaction rate. what does this suggest about the importance of temperature-regulating mechanisms in organisms? explain.

Answer 1

Homeostasis is very important and your body function or the enzymes here because of your body being in homeostasis. If increase or decrease in temp, your body will halt all processes and try to readjust your body back to normal first because if not, then a lot of other processes would be affected negatively as well and you could potentially get ill.
