Question

Which one of the following statements correctly defines active site?

Answer 1

Hey, Welcome to OpenStudy :)

Answer 2

Heyy and Thanks:)

Answer 3

are there choices?

Answer 4

no i don't see none

Answer 5

so:
Which one of the following statements correctly defines active site?

why the ****Which one of the following statements****

Answer 6

anyways,

An active site is where the substrate binds to the enzyme.

A substrate is the reactant.

Answer 7

O mybad , i have another question . . . Why are enzymes known as biocatalysts?

Answer 8

the active site is the small portion of an enzyme where substrate molecules bind and undergo a chemical reaction.

Answer 9

This chemical reaction occurs when a substrate collides with and slots into the active site of an enzyme

Answer 10

umm i dont see them has a choice

Answer 11

Why are enzymes known as biocatalysts?

**A catalyst is something that speeds up a reaction, but is not used up in the process.
Enzymes are known as biocatalysts because they work in the same way normal catalysts work, they speed up a reaction, whilst never being used up and they are an organic compound. **

so because enzymes act as catalysts that remain unmodified as they increase the rate of a chemical reaction.

also An enzyme is a natural catalyst in living things. Bio means life, so an enzyme is a biocatalyst because it works in living things.

Answer 12

In Indian cuisine, sometimes a papaya is added to make meat cook faster. Why does this method work?

Answer 13

There's an enzyme that's naturally found in unripe papayas, called "papain."

Answer 14

For many years, people have used it as a meat tenderizer, because it breaks down tough muscle fibers, in meat.

Answer 15

When we tenderize meat, we soften it.

Answer 16

And tender meat cooks faster than tough meat.

Answer 17

so basically because of enzymes.

Answer 18

Why is the enzyme pectinase added during the manufacture of fruit juices?

Answer 19

Pectinase is an enzyme that catalyzes the breakdown of pectin, a component of the cell wall in fruits such as apples and oranges

Answer 20

Why are enzymes known as biocatalysts?

Answer 21

has already been answered before in this post?

Answer 22

ohh yeaa thanks:)

Answer 23

What is the best definition of a eukaryotic cell?

Answer 24

A eukaryote is an organism whose cells contain complex structures enclosed within membranes.

Answer 25

they're cells with a nucleus bounded by a nuclear membrane

Answer 26

Which statement about ribosomes is correct? A).prokaryotic ribosomes are larger than eukaryotic B). prokaryotic ribosomes are smaller than eukaryotic C). both the same size

Answer 27

answer is B

Answer 28

Prokaryotic ribosomes are around 20 nm (200 Å) in diameter and are composed of 65% ribosomal RNA and 35% ribosomal proteins. Eukaryotic ribosomes are between 25 and 30 nm (250–300 Å) in diameter and the ratio of rRNA to protein is close to 1.

Answer 29

an example of a prokaryote?

Answer 30

bacterias virusus

Answer 31

types of bacteria an is lactobacillus one of them?

Answer 32

rod shaped, cocci

Answer 33

an example of a eukaryote?

Answer 34

plants animals

Answer 35

most appropriate example of the denaturation of protein.

Answer 36

The active site is a site on the enzyme molecule where specific substrate molecules bind.

The active site is a site on the substrate molecule where specific enzyme molecules bind.

The active site is a site on the substrate molecule where specific product molecules bind.
