The correct option is 3.
Enzymes are biological catalysts which speed up the rate of biochemical reactions inside the cells. Enzymes are very specific in action and they require specific conditions called optimum conditions for them to function optimally.
When the optimum conditions are not met, an enzyme's activity will be lowered or totally stopped.
Conditions that affect the optimum activity of an enzyme include: temperature, pH level and regulatory activity of regulatory enzymes and hormones.
Answer:
Hi there!
Your answer is:
It is very important for the cell membrane to be <em>semi-permeable</em> because the ability to pick and choose what comes in and out of the cell keeps the cell safe! The membrane can choose to block out nasty germs and can also choose to get rid of internal waste.
An example of when this is important is in this scenario:
Let's say the cells are in a really salty solution. Naturally, salt will want to pull the water out of the cell. If the membrane <u>wasn't</u><u> </u> semi permeable, the water would listen to the salt and leave the cell. This would cause cell death. <u>BECAU</u><u>SE</u> the membrane is semi permeable, they can choose <em>not</em> to give the salt any water, keeping them alive
Hope this helps
