Many enzymes in the human body function best at 37^oC.  What is the most likely result of a great increase in body temperature?

• enzymes become hormones
• enzymes become denatured
• enzymes become more active
• enzymes become more sluggish

Which best explains why enzymes are important in biological systems?

• they hold all genetic information of a cell
• they are necessary to maintain skin moisture
• they accelerate the rate of chemical reactions
• they support structures to maintain body temperature

Which best explains how the structure of enzymes is related to their function?

• enzyme structures release the energy in their substrates
• enzyme structures react with their substrates
• enzymes' unique active site allows it to fit with only one substrate molecule
• enzymes interact with their substrates like welders building a steel skyscraper

Why are proteins important to the survival of animals?

• they provide the body with energy
• they provide energy storage for cells
• they provide genetic information to cells
• they provide structural functions for the body

Which best describes the importance of carbohydrates to organisms?

• they provide storage for water molecules
• they provide an immediate energy source
• they provide an additional source for amino acids
• they provide permanent storage for genetic information
