Solution
Enzyme:
Enzymes are biocatalysts that help accelerate body metabolism.
The majority of enzymes are proteins with abilities to speed up biological processes such as respiration, digestion, excretion, etc.
The macromolecular components of all enzymes consist of protein, except in ribozymes, which have ribonucleic acid.
Recent studies estimate that the human body produces approximately 1300 different enzymes.
