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.
Detailed explanation-2: -First, they increase the rate of chemical reactions without themselves being consumed or permanently altered by the reaction. Second, they increase reaction rates without altering the chemical equilibrium between reactants and products.
Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: The human body needs many different enzymes because of all of its complex metabolic activities and processes. The enzymes act as catalysts to the various metabolic chemical reactions that take place, and once the enzyme is used to catalyze a reaction, it’s gone, so it needs to be replaced.
Detailed explanation-4: -They act as catalysts, which means that they make biochemical reactions happen faster than they would otherwise. Without enzymes, those reactions simply would not occur or would run too slowly to sustain life. For example, without enzymes, digestion would be impossible.
