Well, you don't need enzymes (biological catalysts) if you're willing to wait a century or two to digest a burger.
Without catalysts, complex reactions like digestion would take too long and the organism could not extract energy from the nutrients it eats in a practical time frame.
In addition, speed is everything in the biological world.
Some reactions and their speed relative to other organisms reactions determines who survives and who doesn't, among other aspects of life.
If a plant is slow to photosynthesize and grow in a habitat high in competition for sunlight real estate, other autotrophs will surely take over.
Ummmm this one is hard but i guess it would be t?????
Answers:
1) - COOH
2) carboxyl group
The organic acids contain the carboxyl group: - COOH.
Fats are structures composed by fatty acids. Fatty acids are long aliphatic chains with a carboxyl group at the end.
Aminoacids are chains that contains amine group (NH2) at one end and the carboxyl group at the other end.
Then both aminoacids and fatty acids contain the carboxyl group (-COOH) at one end.
