Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Enzymes are proteins that act as catalysts in chemical reactions, increasing the rate of the reaction without being consumed or altered themselves. They are not carbohydrate molecules and are not broken down during the reactions they catalyze. Additionally, their names typically end in the suffix "-ase," not "-ose." Enzymes are not polymers of ATP, which is a molecule that stores energy, but they can interact with and utilize ATP in certain reactions.
