Enzymes are proteins that are biological catalysts
They reduce the activation energy required for a reaction to occur and thus speed up a reaction
Temperature, above a certain point (optimum temperature) causes them to break down and they are gradually destroyed (denaturing)
They work best at a particular pH (optimum pH) and are once again destroyed by low or high pH's
They have a specific shape, with one particular part, known as the active site, that is specific to the substrate they speed the reaction of. These means they are specific to one type of reaction.
They aren't used in the reaction so they're re-usable.
If it isn't one of these then it is not one of the properties of enzymes
Answer: Point mutation is easily reversible, thus non-lethal
Explanation:
Point mutation is caused by exchange of a single nucleotide for another. These change is called
1) Transition (when a purine base substitute another purine base, or pyrimidine bases substitute each other)
2) Transversion (when a purine base substitute a pyrimidine base).
However, note that a point mutation can be easily reversed by another point mutation; so, the claim that a nucleotide difference in the Hsr12 gene caused the human disease is inaccurate
When the bond between the second and third phosphate group is broken in ATP, ADP is formed and energy is released. This energy can power the cell's functions.
Every species has different timespans. Some butterflies live 6 months, other live 7 years. However, most of their time they are caterpillars or are in a coccoon. Up to 6 years
Answer:
It should be 2- Bonds
Explanation:
Energy, potential energy, is stored in the covalent bonds holding atoms together in the form of molecules.
