There are approximately 6 million people living with Alzheimer's in America. It is thought that Alzheimer's can be caused by incorrectly formed proteins. Use what we know about proteins/DNA to explain how mutations and changes in DNA can lead to Alzheirmer's. Can Alzheirmers be passed down through genetics? How so? Must answer in approximately 5-6 sentences in order to receive full credit. plz help​

it provides an alternative energy pathway for the reaction to proceed.

a catalyst is a substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction but is not consumed during the course of the reaction.

catalysts increase the rate of reaction without being used up. they do this by lowering the activation energy needed. with a catalyst, more collisions result in a reaction, so the rate of reaction increases. different reactions need different catalysts.

a catalyst works by providing an alternative reaction pathway to the reaction product. the rate of the reaction is increased as this alternative route has a lower activation energy than the reaction route not mediated by the catalyst.

haha

it's made from mineral oil
