Answer:

- They allow for more collisions of molecules (enzymes + substrates)

- They lower the amount of activation energy needed to complete the reaction.

- They speed up chemical reactions to form more products

Explanation:

Enzymes are proteinous molecules that serves as catalyst in living systems. Like every other catalyst, enzymes function to SPEED UP the rate of biochemical reactions by LOWERING/REDUCING the activation energy, which is the energy required for a reactant to form product (completion of reaction).

Enzymes like other catalysts causes faster movement of molecules in the reaction i.e. they allow for more collisions of molecules (enzymes + substrates). This causes the rate of reaction to increase and hence, speeden the reaction.

What is a possible explanation for why bacteria lack ether-linked cell membranes
oee [108]

Answer:

Because they do not live in the extreme environments.

Explanation:

Cell membrane has a vital role in separating the external environment of cell from its external environment. Just like eukaryotic cell, cell membrane of bacteria is also composed of proteins and lipids (phospholipids).

If we compare the structure of ancient bacteria's and modern bacteria's cell membrane then we notice that in  archaebacteria or ancient bacteria the phospholipids of cell membrane are linked with ether (means they have glycerol backbones). whereas in modern bacteria they are linked through ester linkages.

So, the stronger glycerol backbones give the archaebacteria more stable cell membranes through which they are able to resist harsh environmental stresses like salt lakes, volcanic stress, boiling mud and hot springs. As modern bacteria do not always have to live under such stresses thats why they donot have ether-linked cell membrane.

Hope it helps!

what are the three properties of components of the universe that can be determined using electromagnetic radiation
vodomira [7]
<span>The three properties of components of the universe are frequency,wavelength and Intensity can be determined using electromagnetic radiation.Frequency is defined as the number of cycles per second, and it's unit is Hertz (Hz).Formula is E=hν. Wavelength is the distance of one full cycle of the oscillation.The wavelength related to frequency formula is c=λν.Amplitude is the distance from the maximum vertical displacement of the wave to the middle of the wave. Then amplitude tells about the brightness of the wave.</span>
