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.
Living and nonliving things in an ecosystem interact with each other; on the other hand, plants use energy from the sun.
Explanation:
The ecosystem is an interaction circumstance between the living and non - living things which exists in an environment and has an impact on its too. The essential source of energy to this ecosystem is the solar energy coming from the sun.
But the energy from the sun could only be taken up by the plants and being used in photosynthesis to produce food and oxygen which required by other living things of the ecosystem. This essentiality is exclusive of the plants.
