Catalase is an enzyme, a type of biological molecule composed mostly of protein, that serves as a catalyst to accelerate the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen within living organisms.
Catalase is a type of biological molecule called an enzyme. Enzymes are macromolecules, primarily composed of proteins, that act as catalysts to accelerate chemical reactions within living organisms. They work by lowering the activation energy of the reaction they are catalyzing, thereby speeding up the reaction rate. Catalase serves a critical biological function by converting the harmful substance hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen.
Enzymes function by binding to reactant molecules and facilitating bond changes in order to make the reaction occur more readily. However, they do not change the reactants' or products' free energy or alter the direction of the reaction. Instead, they simply reduce the activation energy required to reach the transition state of a chemical reaction.
Like all enzymes, catalase is highly specific to its substrate (the molecule it reacts with). In this case, the substrate is hydrogen peroxide. Importantly, like all catalysts, enzymes including catalase do not get consumed or modified during the reaction, making them reusable.

Answer: alleles
Explanation:
Alleles are different forms of a given gene. Alleles are mutated forms of a given gene which controls a particular trait. For instance, the gene that codes for hemoglobin is denoted with the letter A but the gene has another variant denoted by S. In abnormal hemoglobin S (sickle hemoglobin), glutamate is replaced by valine at position 6 in the amino acid sequence of the two beta chains of hemoglobin. This change in the amino acid sequence causes the red blood cells to have a sickle shape resulting in sickle cell disease. Therefore hemoglobin A and S are alleles of a given gene.
B) It is based on European measurement standards.
C) It is the only scientific measurement system.
D) It is based on the wavelength of krypton-86 radiation.
Answer:
The answer is:
A) Its measures are based on divisions that are powers of ten.
Explanation:
The explanation for why this is the answer is that it is true and obvious that the metric measurement system relies on certain divisions and prefixes that are based on the powers of ten such as "centi-" or "milli-". In short, the metric measurement system's basis is being able to have it's measures somewhat "altered" or "adjusted" by these particular prefixes to fit the item or subject or object being measured.
