Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Enzymes are biological catalysts, which means they accelerate chemical reactions in living organisms without being consumed or altered in the process. Enzymes are typically proteins that are highly specific in their action and required in only small amounts to be effective. They are not carbohydrates and are often not stable at high temperatures, depending on the specific enzyme. Enzymes are reusable and can catalyze a reaction multiple times.
