BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -Enzymes in our bodies are catalysts that speed up reactions by helping to lower the activation energy needed to start a reaction. Each enzyme molecule has a special place called the active site where another molecule, called the substrate, fits.

Detailed explanation-2: -Enzymes (and other catalysts) act by reducing the activation energy, thereby increasing the rate of reaction.

Detailed explanation-3: -Enzymes speed up (catalyse) chemical reactions by lowering the amount energy required to start the reaction. The energy required to start the reaction is called activation energy. Enzymes lower activation energy by either putting strain on the chemical bonds of a substrate molecule …
