Why do metabolic pathways require tens to hundreds of different enzymes? The enzymes are used up after one reaction and the molecules have to undergo multiple rearrangements. The enzyme is deformed by the interaction with the substrate and needs a period of time to return to its original reactive form so many enzymes are needed to keep the pathway going. Each enzyme has a specific substrate and produces a specific product. Multiple enzymes are not required for the pathway but having them speed up the production of the final product. The enzymes are attached to a membrane and cannot move to the location of the new intermediate so having a long line of enzymes to carry out the reaction allows the reaction to occur faster.

Both starch and cellulose are made by stringing together many glucose molecules, but starch is easily digested by humans while cellulose is indigestible.

How can you explain the human's inability to digest cellulose? The enzyme that breaks down starch can only fit the specific bond configuration of bonds below the ring. Humans do not eat cellulose. The acidic molecules found in stomach acid cannot act on the bonds that are above the sugar rings in cellulose. The alternating bonds make the cellulose molecule too large and bulk to enter cells for digestion. Cellular respiration is only capable of breaking down specific bonds.

What is the biological risk of using salt on icy roads in parts of the country that have a cold winter season?
