what will be when a polymer attach together
water will be removed
29
what is enzyme
a protein with a specific shape
30
what is the job of enzyme
speed up chemical reaction
31
are enzymes used by chemical over and over again
yes
32
what is active site
the part of the enzymes that conncets to the substrate
