    enzymes can be used over and over again. The substrates fit into the enzyme like a key fits into a lock (3). Enzymes have other functions as well‚ for example enzymes play a big role in your stomach and intestines. Enzymes such as protease‚ lipase‚ and amylase can break up fat‚ oil and starches from our daily food. How Does It Work? Enzymes are proteins‚ which act with a given compound (the substrate) to produce a complex‚ which then forms the products of the reaction.(1) Enzymes

    Physical Warmth‚ Interpersonal Warmth and Sympathetic Nervous System Activity La Trobe University‚ Melbourne Word Count: 2481 Abstract Convergent lines of evidence indicate that introducing a physically warm stimulus‚ such as a heat pack‚ results in individuals interpreting a target person as “warmer”. Neurobiological mechanisms responsible for thermoregulation may be shared by mechanisms responsible for interpretation of interpersonal warmth‚ and may be connected to sympathetic nervous system

    digested by salivary amylase (carbohydrase) in saliva which is an enzyme (biological catalyst) which breaks down the insoluble polysaccharide starch to the soluble simpler sugar called maltose. In digestion‚ food molecules are broken down by hydrolysis reactions (breakdown with water). Saliva also contains mucus‚ which lubricates and helps hold together chewed food in a clump called a bolus. Hydrogencarbonate is also present in the mouth; this maintains an ideal pH for amylase to work in (pH6.5-7

    Enzymes and Their Importance in Plants and Animals Enzymes are large proteins that are responsible for catalysing thousands of metabolic processes that sustain life. Enzymes work similarly to those catalysts used in industry by lowering activation energy and therefore dramatically speeding up the rate of a reaction‚ however‚ these biological catalysts are highly selective to their substrate. Almost every chemical reaction that occurs in a cell requires enzymes in order to occur at rates required

    Metabolism refers to all the chemical reactions in the body of a cell or organism to keep it alive. Metabolism converts the nutrients from the food we eat in to vital energy which the body needs to carry out daily activities. The respiratory system‚ cardiovascular system and the digestive system are the three body systems that are involved with energy metabolism. There are two kinds of activities involved with metabolism processes‚ these are; building up of body tissues and energy stores and the

    (Video). So basically when we see it we begin to salivate‚ we have glands‚ three big glands that are going to produce saliva that is going to empty into our mouth. Now the saliva has water in it but it mostly has mucus and also an enzyme called amylase. And amylase breaks down starch (amylose starch) and so it’s going to break down‚ or start to break down the carbohydrate. So basically are teeth

    Experiment 4 – Effect of Temperature on Enzyme Activity Aim To study the effects of temperature on the activity of amylase enzyme on starch solution. Introduction Enzymes are widely known as biological catalyst. Almost all cellular reactions are controlled and guarded by enzymes. Virtually every metabolic reaction which takes place within a living organisms are catalyzed by enzymes. Enzymes are complex three-dimensional globular proteins. Some of the enzymes are built up off proteins and
