Hydrogen peroxide naturally breaks down into oxygen and water over time. When exposed to the enzyme catalase, hydrogen peroxide
is rapidly converted into oxygen and water. What feature of catalase most likely is responsible for the change in the rate of conversion of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen?
A, Catalase speeds up the conversion of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen by decreasing the reaction's activation energy.
B, Catalase bonds permanently with the reactants causing hydrogen peroxide to rapidly break down by increasing the activation energy.
C ,Catalase has a flexible structure that allows it to bind and convert any small hydrogen containing compound into water and oxygen.
D, Catalase remains intact, so small amounts of it convert large amounts of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen immediately.
Answer: A. Catalase speeds up the conversion of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen by decreasing the reaction's activation energy.
Explanation: Catalase in an enzyme. Enzymes lower the energy required to push a reaction foward (activation energy) but are kept intact and are not a part of the final products.
Catalase is an enzyme in the liver that breaks down harmful hydrogen peroxide into oxygen and water. When this reaction occurs, oxygen gas bubbles escape and create foam. Completely disinfect any surface that the raw liver touches during this activit.

hope this helps you a little have a great day sir/mam
The population would increase drastically and we would run out of resources for food. then the birth rates would eventually equal out to number of death rates . we then wouldnt have anyone alive
