Answer:

True

Explanation:

RNA interference is one of the cell's mechanism to regulate gene expression. Two classes of RNA, micro RNA (miRNA) and small interfering RNA (siRNA) are responsible for post transcriptional gene regulation. RNA interference can also help to fight against viral infection. They prevent the transcription of viral gene and in some cases also lead to its degradation by initiating attack from various protein complexes called as ribonucleases.

Many cells make and use an enzyme, called catalase, to facilitate the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). The products of
Len [333]

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.
