    Study Notes

    Enzymes and Denaturation

    • Enzymes are proteins.
    • They are denatured by extreme temperatures, pH, or other factors that affect protein structure.
    • Denaturation renders enzymes non-functional.

    Action Potential Sequence of Events

    • Action potentials are a sequence of events that occur in neurons, resulting in the transmission of information.

    Gibberellin Role in Barley Germination

    • Gibberellin is a plant hormone that plays a crucial role in the germination of barley.
