Enzyme defect: A disorder resulting from a deficiency (or functional abnormality) of an enzyme. For example, newborns are routinely screened for certain enzyme defects, such as phenylketonuria (PKU) and galactosemia.nzyme defect: A disorder resulting from a deficiency (or functional abnormality) of an enzyme.

It takes Saturn 29.45 years (or 10,759 days) to orbit the Sun. Astronomers call the length of time an object takes to go around the Sun its orbital period. So the orbital period of Saturn is 29.45 years. Saturn. Image credit: Hubble. One of the interesting facts about Saturn is that its axis is tilted off the plane of the ecliptic (just like Earth).
Period of Saturn's Rotation (its day) The latest available data suggests that the equatorial rotation period of Saturn is between about 10.2 and 10.6 Earth hours. It cannot be observed directly because of the thick atmosphere, which rotates at varying speeds depending on latitude. The slowest roation is near the poles and the fastest at the equator.
