Can enzyme fit everything

I'm not sure what you mean by "everything", but a substrate definitely can fit inside an enzyme!

Let's use the enzyme sucrase as an example. There's a vacant space in the enzyme called an "active site" where the substrate enters. In this case, sucrase's substrate is sucrose. The substrate "sucrose" enters and binds to the enzyme sucrase's active site. The binded sucrose and sucrase is called the "enzyme-substrate complex" because the enzyme and the substrate are present. This lowers the activation energy of a reaction, therefore speeding up the reaction as a result. The sucrose is converted into new products: glucose and fructose.

Enzymes are specific to their substrate because their active site only fits certain molecules. However, sometimes a similar-shaped item can fit in the active site and block it off :c

An enzyme works like a key to a lock. If it finds the right thing it can work.

Landscape in which limestone is eroded to form deep valleys and caverns
irina [24]
The landscape in which limestone is eroded to form deep valleys and cavers are called Karst landscape or karst topography. This kind of development start occuring whenever the acidic water starts breaking down the bedrocks near the cracks. As the bedrock starts breaking down slowly, the cracks start to open up creating bigger holes. with passage of time the holes will become big enough to create an underground drainage system for the surface water to flow and form underneath. If the water is unable to flow out and becomes stagnant, then the Karst will start getting bigger.

In Year 1, suppose a new predator that could not differentiate between the light green and dark-green lizards was introduced on
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

C. The ratio would not show any changes in the following year.

Explanation:

Since the introduced (and only) predator can not differentiate between the tone of the lizards (dark and light), you can assume it will feed from them in an equal proportion, so the ratio between dark green and light green lizards will not be affected.

ratelena [41]

The vagus nerve fibers carry action potentials from the brain toward the heart.

<h3>What is vagus nerve?</h3>

The vagus is a nerve that performs the role in sensory, motor, and secretory functions. It contains about 80% sensory fibers. The vagus nerves comes from the brain towards the carotid artery of the heart.

So we can conclude that The vagus nerve fibers carry action potentials from the brain toward the heart.
