- Enzymes
- There is a limit to how far you can raise the temperature as the cells can get damaged.
- A reaction can happen at a quicker rate if the temperature is high.

- We ONLY have proteins to speed up the chemical reactions in our bodies.
- Enzymes are all proteins and all protenis are made up of chains of amino acids.
- Every enzyme has a unique shape that fits into the substance involved.
- If the substance doesn't match the enzymes shape then the reaction wont be catalyzed.
- If it gets too hot, some of the bonds holding the enzymes together break.
- When broken or dead, it is called DENATURED.
- Enzymes in the human body work at about 37 degrees.
- The PH also affects enzymes, the heat also can denature the enzymes.
- Some enzymes work at a ph of 7.
- Pepsin works in the stomach, it works at a PH of 2 to deal with acids.
