enzymes are macromolecular biological catalysts. enzymes accelerate chemical reactions. almost all metabolic processes in the cell need enzymes in order to occur at rates fast enough to sustain life. without them life on earth would probably not exist. identify two factors that can affect the structure and function of an enzyme and describe what causes the change to occur. course hero.

Enzyme is a catalyst

Explanation:

Enzymes make the chemical reaction faster than usual because the activation energy required for a substance to react becomes low with presence of enzymes. if we don't have enzymes it may result to slow metabolic processes. some environmental factor can affect enzymes like over exposed to radiation can activate the enzyme causing it to disrupt. or consuming a mutagenic agents that may affect the enzymes activities.

in the year 2850, humans successfully colonized mars. the martian modules that were constructed could hold only a small population of people. it is now a century later, and the population on mars has grown to 600 people. of the current mars population, 45 people express the recessive phenotype for phenylketon- uria (pku) syndrome (pp genotype).
