Question

EXTRA PONITS AND BEST ANSWER. HELP FAST PLEASE!!!!!! A group of scientist are conducting experiments using and enzyme they have extracted from an organism they are studying. In the lab, the enzyme does not seem to function as it does when it is in the bloodstream of the organism. Which of the following is a likely cause of this difference?
A) the surrounding temperature is different in the organism.
B) the nucleic acids necessary to create the enzyme are missing.
C) the necessary simple sugars to create the enzyme are missing.
D) the amino acid sequence of the enzyme is different in the organism.

Answer 1

The best answer is A. Enzymes work best at a certain temperature, so that if the enzyme is outside it’s ideal temperature, it won’t function normally.
B and C are incorrect because enzymes are made of amino acids, not nucleus acids or simple sugars.
Because the scientists extracted the enzyme from the organism, the amino acid sequence cannot be different between the enzyme and the enzyme in the blood. Thus, D is incorrect.
