Question

deo recap: enzymes 2. enzymes are typically which type of biomolecule? 3. describe the effects that enzymes can have on substrates.

Explanation:

Enzymes are proteins that act as biological catalysts. They lower the activation - energy required for a chemical reaction to occur, thus increasing the rate of the reaction. They bind to specific substrates at their active sites and convert them into products.

Answer:

1. Proteins
2. Enzymes lower the activation - energy of reactions involving substrates, increasing the reaction rate. They bind to substrates at active sites and facilitate the conversion of substrates into products.
