Why is cellulose so difficult for most animals to digest?
1. they don’t have the proper enzyme to break the bonds between subunits
2. cellulose is made up of chitin, which is indigestible
3. the bonds holding cellulose subunits together are extremely strong, stronger than in any other macromolecule
4. there are many hydrogen bonds holding the subunits together

The rate of enzyme action decreases at higher temperature [after a certain value] because the increased heat
1. changes the pH of the system
2. alters the active site of the enzyme
3. neutralizes the acids and bases in the system
4. increases the concentration of the enzyme
