Many cells make and use an enzyme, called catalase, to facilitate the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). The products of

the decomposition are hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2). What is the effect of catalase on the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide? A. It decreases the activation energy needed to start the reaction. B. It decreases the total energy released by the reaction. C. It increases the total energy absorbed by the reaction. D. It changes the ratio of the amounts of the two products.

Answer:

A. It decreases the activation energy needed to start the reaction

Explanation:

Organic catalyst which speed up the rate of organic chemical reaction is living cells are called enzymes.They have specific reaction site called active sites.This must be in prefect shape with the substrate for the organic chemical reaction to take place

When this occurs the minimum amount of  energy of  reaction to  activate or stimulate  the the atoms and molecules of the substrate to undergo chemical reaction is  lowered.This energy of reaction is celled activation energy.

Catalase thought its active sites lowers the activation energy so that the molecules of H2O2 could break down to C02 and H2 faster,thereby reducing the time for theses product to form.The is the general roles of enzyme.To increase the rate of chemical reaction,by reducing the activation  energy.

Describe the structural features of a nauplius
Molodets [167]

Answer:The main features of a nauplius are a simple, unsegmented body, three pairs of appendages (antennules, antennae, and mandibles), and a single, simple, “naupliar” eye. Nauplius larvae are found in the life cycles of cirripedes, ostracods, branchiopods, copepods, euphausiids, the decapod peneid prawns, and….

Why do scientists belive that tectonic active is not accurring on the moon.
Roman55 [17]
<span>Scientists believe that tectonic activity is not occurring on the moon. This is <span>because the moon lacks radioactive decay. The moon is not constantly supplied heat and energy from decaying unstable isotopes like Earth. Also, Earth is heated by the original heat during its formation. Since the moon was most likely broken off from earth, it lacks this central heat. @Kb0812    Hope this helps and if your feeling generous feel free to leave a rate, thanks and brainliest because it would really help me reach expert and I would appreciate it ;)</span></span>
