<u>Answer:- </u> Decomposition
<u>Explanation:- </u>
Decomposition is a natural process that occurs in the environment to break down organic substances into simpler substances.
- All the living organisms that die, are decomposed and their bodies are broken down into simpler substances such that the nutrients are released into the soil.
- The plants are then able to absorb these nutrients from the soil and thus, the nutrient cycling goes on as the organisms feeds on it.
- Not only the dead animals but also the fallen leaves and other parts of the plant gets decomposed as they die.
- The process of decomposition is carried out by living organisms present in the soil such as bacteria. Such organisms are called as decomposers.
Answer:
Methotrexate inhibits the synthesis of DNA, RNA, and protein synthesis of the cells in the experiment.
Explanation:
Methotrexate competitively inhibits the enzyme dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) which is involved in the synthesis of tetrahydrofolate from the inactive dihydrofolate. The methotrexate blocks the enzyme by binding to its active site thereby preventing further reaction of the dihydrofolate reductase enzyme and dihydrofolate. Tetrahydrofolate is a useful material for the de novo synthesis of thymidine, a nucleoside. And without thymidine, DNA synthesis is hindered. Methotrexate therefore inhibits the synthesis of DNA, RNA, thymidylates and of course protein synthesis.
