Enzymes are biological catalysts or assistants. Enzymes consist of various types
of proteins that work to drive the chemical reaction required for a specific ac
tion or nutrient. Enzymes can either launch a reaction or speed it up. The chemi
cals that are transformed with the help of enzymes are called substrates. In the
absence of enzymes, these chemicals are called reactants.

Mold is a type of fungus that grows on plants and fibers and is most often assoc
iated with damp, musty locations such as bathrooms, basements and attics. Mold t
ravels through the air as tiny spores which like to make their home in wet areas
, where they will breed. If mold is spotted, it's best to nip it in the bud imme
diately lest it spread to other areas. It's also a good indication of a moisture
problem, which should be dealt with as soon as possible.

Yeast is a single-celled fungi somewhat related to mushrooms. The word comes fro
m the Old English "gist," meaning bubble or foam. There are several hundred spec
ies identified by science, but one type, Saccharomyces cerivisiae, has been used
in baking and brewing for thousands of years.

bacterium is a unicellular microorganism which represents one of the most basic
and primitive forms of life. Bacteria are everywhere, from pools of nuclear wast
e to deep inside the Earth's crust, and it is believed that bacteria were the fi
rst living organisms on Earth. You come into contact with bacteria constantly, a
lthough you may not be aware of it. Bacteria exist in such abundance that scient
ists have barely begun to scratch the surface of the bacterial life on Earth, al
though some species are well known to humans because they cause infections or di
sease.

Bacteria are microbes, typically 0.5 5.0 micrometers in length, which can be fou
nd in huge numbers throughout every part of the environment, from at least 2 mil
es underground to 7 miles above the surface. Bacteria colonize areas uninhabitab
le to most other forms of life, including Yellowstone hot springs and the McMurd
o Dry Valleys of Antarctica.
