For a substrate to bind to a particular enzyme what do you need

Biology
1 answer:
sattari [20]4 years ago
4 0

The enzyme’s active site binds to the substrate. Since enzymes are proteins, this site is composed of a unique combination of amino acid residues (side chains or R groups). Each amino acid residue can be large or small; weakly acidic or basic; hydrophilic or hydrophobic; and positively-charged, negatively-charged, or neutral. The positions, sequences, structures, and properties of these residues create a very specific chemical environment within the active site. A specific chemical substrate matches this site like a jigsaw puzzle piece and makes the enzyme specific to its substrate.

Ksju [112]

Answer:

The correct option is A) the hypothalamus

Explanation:

The hypothalamus is a part of the diencephalon located below the thalamus and formed by several nuclei of neurons with their associated nerve fibers, many of them neurosecretory nature, that is, to the hypothalamus, afferent and efferent pathways arrive and depart respectively, which connect it with different regions of the brain and outside it, receives signals from internal sensory receptors and, in response, sends orders through pathways in which very few synapses intervene to quickly generate regulatory responses, for this reason, the hypothalamus is considered the center of neuroendocrine, autonomous and homeostatic regulation, which acts as an integrating center coordinating environmental messages, rhythms, endogenous development patterns, emotions and body signals, to finally produce, in an integrated way, early autonomous responses and relatively late endocrine responses.
