The Reedy River put Greenville on the mapâand, like its meandering currents and rushing falls, is the centerpiece for its rise, fall, and triumphant rise again. It has humble beginnings. Greenvilleâs Reedy River starts with a few springs seeping out of the ground just north in Travelers Rest off Ebenezer Church Road. It gathers strength, breadth, and force as it flowsâtouching thousands of lives by the time it reaches its most prominent feature in the heart of the city.
Role of enzymes in metabolism. Some enzymes help to break down large nutrient molecules, such as proteins, fats, and carbohydrates, into smaller molecules. This process occurs during the digestion of foodstuffs in the stomach and intestines of animals. Other enzymes guide the smaller, broken-down molecules through the intestinal wall into the bloodstream.
Enzymes are globular proteins that control biological reactions. Digestive enzymes speed up the breakdown (hydrolysis) of food molecules into their âbuilding blockâ components.These reactions occur outside of the cells lining the gut.igestive enzymes speed up the breakdown (hydrolysis) of food molecules into their âbuilding blockâ components.
