Answer:
D) They can increase the reaction rate for a given reaction by a thousand-fold or more.
Explanation:
Enzymes are like catalysts with the only difference that they are bio-molecules. Biochemical/chemical reactions are slow because of 'transition state barriers' which require a lot of energy to overcome so enzymes rather than overcoming transition state barrier provide an alternate pathway for biochemical reactions which require comparatively less energy. Thus presence of an enzyme leads to an increase in reaction rate because alternate pathway which requires less energy makes the rate of chemical reaction rapid by a thousand-fold or more.
Answer:
The body needs protein to build and repair tissues to make hormones, enzymes, body chemicals e.t.c.
The body also uses protein as a building block of blood , bones, skin , muscles, cartilage e.t.c.
Explanation:
Answer:
Your body uses carbohydrates, lipids and proteins for energy. When small organic molecules bind together, they form larger molecules called biological macromolecules. Biological macromolecules fall into four categories: carbohydrates, proteins, lipids and nucleic acids. Your body uses carbohydrates, lipids and proteins for energy.

In some cases, massive destruction of red blood cells caused death. This drug-induced hemolytic anemia was shown 30 years later to be caused by a deficiency of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, the enzyme catalyzing the first step in the oxidative branch of the pentose phosphate pathway.
in short terms, glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase
I believe proteins are synthesized from amino acids during synthesis reactions.
Protein synthesis starts with transcription of mRNA from a DNA gene in the nucleus.Various types of RNA may have been synthesized using the appropriate DNA. The RNAs migrate from the nucleus to the cytoplasm where the process of translation takes place. During the process the mRNA with the codons (three nucleotide bases that code for a specific amino acids) is interpreted by the anticodons in the tRNA , thus forming amino acids with together forms polypeptides and then proteins are formed.
