Proteins are affected by environmental conditions
such as heat and pH.
Explain why the process of cooking an egg cannot be
reversed.
Answer:
The heat that is added to the egg changes the bonds
in the proteins and other molecules that make up the
egg to such a large extent that the original protein
shape can no longer be distinguished.

Answer:
Part A Enzymes catalyze chemical reactions that are
involved in important cell processes.
Part B Bonding of the substrates to enzymes causes a
slight change in the enzyme’s shape, thereby
weakening some of the bonds and lowering activation
energy.
