Ariana Lutz · Answer 1

Enzymes are biological catalysts which speed up the speed of reaction by lowering the activation energy without itself being consumed for e. g to digest proteins there are dfrn enzymes and to digest carbohydrates there are dfrn enzymes every enzyme is specific in its function

Kyler Shepherd · Answer 2

Enzymes can speed up the chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy of chemical reaction
