Question

16. Mark the incorrect statement
(1) Every chemical reaction that occurs in a living
system is a catalytic reaction
(2) Living state is a nonequilibrium steady state to
be able to perform work
(3) Specificity of an enzyme is because of its
active site
(4) All chemical reactions occuring in the living
systems are mediated by biocatalysts


the answer is 1
please explain​

Answer 1

Answer:

(1) every chemical reaction the occures in a living.

Explanation:

Chemical reactions that take place inside living things are called biochemical reactions. The sum of all the biochemical reactions in an organism is called metabolism. Metabolism includes both exothermic (energy-releasing) chemical reactions and endothermic (energy-absorbing) chemical reactions.

Answer 2

many chemical reactions would proceed slowly or not take place at all without catalysts. In living things, catalysts called enzymes are absolutely necessary for life. Without them, many important reactions could not take place within your body.........
