Carbonic anhydrase is an enzyme involved in the reaction of carbon dioxide with water to form a molecule that dissolves well in the liquid part of blood. how does carbonic anhydrase affect this reaction? a) by changing chemical products of the reaction b) by increasing the time needed for the reaction to occur c) by decreasing the amount of energy needed to complete the reaction

The right answer is C) by decreasing the amount of energy needed to complete the reaction

Carbonic anhydrase is an enzyme found in all our cells. It is a protein with a mass of 29,000 daltons, consisting of a chain of 264 amino acids. The presence of a Zinc atom is necessary for its activity.

It catalyzes (accelerate) the addition reaction of a molecule of water on a molecule of carbon dioxide to give the carbonic acid which dissociates at physiological pH into a bicarbonate ion and a proton. This reaction is reversible and results in a state of equilibrium that enzymatic catalysis does not change.

Carbonic anhydrase is an enzyme involved in the reaction of carbon dioxide with water to form a molecule that dissolves well in the liquid part of blood. Carbonic anhydrase affects this reaction by decreasing the amount of energy needed to complete the reaction because when the amount of energy is decreased then it will dissolve well in the liquid part of blood otherwise, it will not react.

the correct answer: the index of refraction of the second medium is lower i tried this persons answer and it was wrong this person is lying

what's the question ?
