B. a volcano that erupts in blasts of the pyroclastic matter. D. would be wrong because the shield volcano can have explosive eruptions but they are generally quiet
Answer: unfavourable ph condition for the pepsin
Explanation: during digestion, enzymes are needed to aid the process.digestive enzymes are biological catalyst that breakdown large food particles into digestible form .
As biological catalyst, enzymes require an optimum temperature and pH condition.outside this temperature or pH,the enzyme is denatured.
In the stomach, hydrochloric acid is required to convert pepsinogen into it's active form,pepsin.the acid also creates an optimum low pH that pepsin needs to function.
As the food moves to the small intestine,the pH is alkaline and is unfavourable for pepsin to function.
Answer:
Answer B. Endosymbiosis
Explanation:
Early protists were first eukaryotic organisms and had several membrane bound organelles. The anaerobic protists evolved by acquiring purple bacteria. The purple bacteria have the ability to carry out aerobic cellular respiration. The endosymbiont transformed into mitochondria in due course of evolution. Similarly, the photosynthesizing protists were evolved by endosymbiosis of cyanobacteria which in turn was transformed into chloroplast during further evolution.
