Explain Heating Enzyme Leads Denatured Marks Kinetic Energy

Heating an enzyme increases kinetic energy, breaking bonds that maintain its tertiary structure and causing denaturation.

Heating an enzyme increases kinetic energy, causing the bonds maintaining its tertiary structure to break, leading to denaturation.

Front Explain how heating an enzyme leads to it being denatured. (2 marks)
Back More (kinetic) energy
Bonds/specified bonds (holding tertiary structure) break;
