Best Answer

Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions in cells by lowering the activation energy required for the reaction to occur. They do this by binding to specific substrates and facilitating the conversion of these substrates into products. Enzymes are highly specific in their actions, as they typically only catalyze one type of reaction.
