The following list shows the precedence of binary operators in Prometheus, from highest to lowest. ^ *, /, % +, -==, !=, <=, <, >=, > and, unless; or; Operators on the same precedence level are left-associative. For example, 2 * 3 % 2 is equivalent to (2 * 3) % 2. However ^ is right associative, so 2 ^ 3 ^ 2 is equivalent to 2 ^ (3 ^ 2).
Introduction - Enzyme Characteristics: A living system controls its activity through enzymes. An enzyme is a protein molecule that is a biological catalyst with three characteristics. First, the basic function of an enzyme is to increase the rate of a reaction. Most cellular reactions occur about a million times faster than they would in the absence of an enzyme.
Enzymes Examples. Special organic molecules called amino acids are used by living organisms to make proteins, and proteins are simply long chains of amino acids. Enzymes are special types of proteins also made from strings of amino acids. The enzyme's function is determined by the sequence and types of amino acids, and their shape. The functions of cells rely on these enzymes. The enzymes help produce and speed up the chemical reactions in cells. In short, the enzymes help cells get things done.
