those enzymes which contain only one polypeptide chain in which the active site resides are known as monomeric enzyme .the grop has relatively small number of hydolytic enzymes which take part in digestion.
most monomeric enzymes are synthesized as inactive molecules known as zymogen granules which become activated under different agents.

What is mnemonical enzyme?
Allosteric enzymes are mostly polymeric in nature i.e. they are made up of several subunits. These enzymes exhibit cooperativity i.e. binding of a ligand to the active site alters (increase or decrease) the binding affinity of the ligand on other sites. Some monomeric enzymes also exhibit cooperativity. Those monomeric enzymes which exhibit cooperativity are called mnemonical enzymes. Hexokinase D (an isoenzyme of hexokinase) is one such example.
What are the catalyst found in living cells called?
Catalysts that are active working in the body are called enzymes.
What is a serum enzymes?
Serum enzymes are any type of enzymes that are found in the blood.
What are ''thermolabile enzymes''?
The enzymes which degrade or decomposed when heated are called thermolabile enzymes
Do proteins serve as enzymes?
Some proteins do serve as enzymes, but certainly not all proteins.

What are building monomeric units of proteins?
The monomeric units are called amino acids, connected by polypeptide bonds.
What is the monomeric form of a carbohydrate called?
Monosaccharides
Proteins are polymers of the monomeric molecules called?
Amino acids.
What is the monomeric unit for nucleic acids?
It would be a nucleotide. Either thymine, cytosine, alanine, guanine, or uracil.
What reaction links monomeric units together to form long chains?
polymerization
Can a thermosetting plastic change shape?
No because of cross linking of monomeric chains. On heating it chars.
What does a double helix comprised of?
double helix are made up of some monomeric compound like, nitrogenous compound of purine and pyrimidine, sugar and phosphate in case of DNA. In case of Protein alpha helix, which is also a double helical structure is made up of monomeric amino acids.
Why is it necessary for polysaccharides to be digested outside of the cell?
Polysaccharides are very large and therefore would require a lot of energy in order to transport across a cell wall. So cells will secrete exoenzymes to break the polysaccharides into smaller, monomeric portions and then absorb the monomeric portions in order to save energy.

When glucose the monomeric subunit found in glycogen is required for energy glycogen is broken down through a process known as?
hydrolysis
What is an albuminate?
An albuminization is the conversion into albumin, a monomeric water-soluble-protein, on a coating with albumen.
