How do enzymes influence the amount of activation energy needed?

What your cells have to help overcome a problem of high activation energy are called enzymes. Enzymes are proteins that lower the activation energy of a reaction. In doing this, enzymes increase the rate of a reaction, helping it to occur faster. However, enzymes are not consumed in a reaction; they simply help it to occur.

Enzymes make things easier for your cells to work properly and help chemical reactions occur. There are hundreds of different kinds of enzymes in your cells, which all participate in different types of reactions. Enzymes can break molecules apart, build or add molecules, and even rearrange them.

In lowering the activation energy of a reaction, enzymes decrease the barrier to starting a reaction. It's important to note, however, that the change in energy remains the same between the start and end of a chemical reaction.

4. What is an example of positive feedback?
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

It is known as lactation. The suckling action of an infant produces prolactin, which leads to milk production; more suckling leads to more prolactin, which in turn leads to more lactation. This is a positive feedback system as the product (milk) produces more suckling and more hormone. When the child is no longer breast feeding, the prolactin drops off and milk production goes down.

A batsman is unlikely to score a century in every cricket match. This is an example of
Licemer1 [7]

A batsman is unlikely to score a century in every cricket match. This is an example of "partial reinforcement".

<u>Option: C</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Unlike constant reinforcement, partial reinforcement is only strengthened during certain times or time ratios, rather than emphasizing the action every single time. This method of arranging reinforcement is also called intermittent reinforcement after certain number of correct answers or certain interval of time. Thus here a batsman donot plan intentionally to make a century in every cricket match, but it goes random. Although when they need to score high on pressure, they force themselves to stretch as much possible which is not general.
