Answer:
denature
activation energy
catalyst
induced fit
inhibitor
substrate; product
active site
enzyme
Note: The question is incomplete. The complete question is found in the attachment below.
Explanation:
High temperatures or changes in pH can denature an enzyme, causing it to lose its shape and activity.
Enzymes speed up chemical reactions by lowering the activation energy which allows the reaction to proceed much more quickly.
An enzyme is considered a(n) catalyst because it speeds up a chemical reaction without being used up.
The induced fit between an active site and its substrate often strains bonds and helps the reaction proceed.
A(n) inhibitor is a molecule that can bind to an enzyme and prevent the enzyme from working.
During an enzymatic reaction, a molecule of substrate binds to the enzyme and is broken down into one or more molecules of product which are released.
The specific location within an enzyme molecule where the substrate binds is called the active site.
Lactose takes years to break down on its own. But if exposed to the protein lactase, the reaction proceeds very quickly, while lactase itself remains unchanged. Lactase is an example of a(n) enzyme.
Determine the proportion of offspring phenotypes that would result when two merle dogs mate, if one dog is true-breeding for the long-coat trait and the other dog is true-breeding for the short-coat trait. ResetHelp
Answer:
100% long-coat
Explanation:
Assuming that the long-coat trait is represented by L allele and the short-coat trait by l allele.
True-breeding long-coat dog would have the genotype LL while true-breeding short-coat would have the genotype ll.
Assuming that the long-coat trait is dominant over the short-coat trait.
LL x ll
Ll Ll Ll Ll
All the offspring would have Ll genotype and would appear with long-coat phenotypically. Hence, the proportion of offspring phenotypes is 100% long coat.
A study is being done to test the effects of temperature on the number of microbial colonies. Four different incubators are set up, each at a different temperature with one culture plate in each. Each plate has the same nutrient content, pH, and are inoculated with microorganism samples from the same source. At the end of the experiment, the number of colonies on each plate is counted. What is the independent variable
Answer:
The correct answer is - the different temperatures of incubators.
Explanation:
An independent variable is a variable in a study or research which is manipulated or changed to check or find the effect on the dependent variable. The independent variable is the only factor that changes in research while other factors remain constant that can affect the result in the study.
In this case or study, there is the only factor that is manipulated is the temperature of incubators is manipulated to see the effect of temperature on the number of microbial colonies. Thus, the different temperatures of incubators is the independent variable here.
