The pulmonary artery is the artery that carries the blood to your heart from your lungs.
True
False
Which is NOT a function of the blood
Transports blood cells
Breaks down urea
Carries carbon dioxide to the lungs
Carries soluble products of digestion
Which part of the digestive system had a low pH to help the enzymes with low optimum pH level
Mouth
Large Intesine
Small Intestine
Stomach
Which one of these statements about enzymes isn't true.
The active site on the enzyme has a specfic shape to only fit one substrate.
When the temperature around the enzyme is above it's optimum temperature, the enzyme will start to denature.
Enzymes can speed up reactions. Examples can be breaking down molecules, or putting molecules together.
When a enzyme is in a pH that is not in it's optimum pH range, it will die.
Denaturing is when the enzyme, and it's active site, change shape.

muscle contraction
active transport
maintaining a steady body temperature
True or false: cells need oxygen to release large amounts of energy
True
False
