Answer:
c. Pyridostigmine binds to the acetylcholinesterase active site and prevents sarin from binding to and modifying the enzyme active site.
Explanation:
Sarin is a toxic compound which inhibits acetylcholinesterase enzyme. This enzyme degrades the neurotransmitter acetylcholine after the required muscle cell stimulation. In absence of its activity, acetylcholine is not degraded and the muscle cells are stimulated uncontrollably. The muscles are not able to relax which ultimately proves fatal for the victim.
Pyridostigmine is also an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor like Sarin. However its period of inhibition is short compared to organophosphorus inhibitors like sarin. It competes with sarin and replaces it in the active site of acetylcholinesterase. The enzyme is still inhibited but for a shorter time as compared to inhibition by Sarin. Hence after sometime, it becomes functional again and resumes its normal activity. Acetycholine starts getting degraded relaxing the muscles.

The process by which metabolic waste is eliminated from an organism.
Carbon dioxide concentrations in soil are higher than in the atmosphere because of respiration of the plants, their roots. Also, CO2 is inhigherr concentration because of the decomposition of organic matter. Decomposition of organic matter produce more CO2 because of increased microbial activity. CO2 concentrations can change as a result of temperature change or different soil structure. Composition of air in soil and atmosphere of CO2 is
