Catalysis An enzyme may catalyse a reaction by stressing or
destabilizing the bonds of the substrates. This point in the enzymatic reaction
is known as the Transition State. An
enzyme can couple a nonspontaneous reaction to a spontaneous reaction so that
anabolic processes will occur.
Water would move out of the cells of the microorganisms by osmosis and the cytoplasm would become dehydrated, killing the cells.
The brine is a hypertonic solution, thereby "pulling" the water out of the bacterial cells.
Answer:
The barrier functions to regulate the chemical composition of the extracellular fluid surrounding the brain cells.
Explanation:
Blood-brain barrier
It is a very selective semipermeable membrane , hence allow some specific substance to pass via it . This barrier separates the extracellular fluid in the central nervous system and the circulating blood from the brain .
<u>The barrier is composed of the endothelial cells .</u>
Passive diffusion is shown in this system , and allows molecules like the water , glucose , amino acid to pass .
It regulates the chemical composition of the fluid of brain cell .
