Question 8
8.
You have a fever of 103 degrees and it keeps creeping up. If your temperature goes up one more degree your mom is taking you to the emergency room, and rightfully so! Fevers are good but, when your temperature gets too high, a fever can be dangerous. This is because it denatures your enzymes. In other words, it changes their shape so that they don't work.
1. Name one digestive enzyme (from our objective 8 notes NOT the internet) and describe its function.
2. Identify what digestive canal organ(s) this enzyme is found in. (Our objective 8 notes tell you where each macromolecule is broken down!)
3. Explain how your body would be affected, if your fever got higher and this enzyme was not working.
