Homework Answers
I believe the correct answer to be:
Option C) Coenzymes are necessary to activate enzymes, speeding up reaction time.
As Coenzymes are small molecules. They cannot by themselves catalyze a reaction but they can help enzymes to do so. In technical terms, coenzymes are organic nonprotein molecules that bind with the protein molecule (apoenzyme) to form the active enzyme (holoenzyme).

1 point Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is an essential cofactor for many metabolic reactions. Lack of the precursor to NAD+, niacin, results in the human disease called pellagra, thus humans have evolved salvage pathways to breakdown and re-synthesize NAD+ when needed. Below is the chemical structure of NAD+. Enzymes catalyze reactions in parts of the protein called an active site. This portion of the protein forms favorable weak interactions with the substrate and stabilize the transition state, which is crucial...

Which statement about enzyme catalysis is false? All of the active site amino acids are next to each other in the primary sequence. Enzymes speed up reactions by forming specific non-covalent bonds between the enzyme amino acids and the transition state molecule. Some enzymes require other molecules, called cofactors, to carry out chemical reactions. Generally, the most important amino acids for an enzyme's function are those in the active site. Question 6 1 pt When [S] is much more than...
