Answer:
<u>The enzyme's active site binds to and stabilizes the transition state, which decreases the activation energy of the reaction.</u>
Explanation:
Enzymes are complex multi-folded forms of proteins - they promote chemical reactions in biological processes.
Typically, molecules collide at random, and complex chemical reactions require the right molecular orientation and energy to react (breaking and forming bonds).
Enzymes lower energy needs by providing an alternative reaction pathway and stabilize and maintain the molecules in their intermediate forms called transition states.
Answer:
D. a wide variety of gradual and sudden changes to ecosystems
Explanation:
There have been different global climatic changes throughout the history of planet earth. The changes have been gradual or abrupt and have been due to various causes, such as those related to changes in orbital parameters, precession , variations in solar radiation, continental drift, periods of intense volcanism, meteorite impacts etc. Some changes to the ecosystems related to climatic changes are, for example,The Cretaceous-Tertiary extinction (which probably caused the extinction of the dinosaurs), the contraction of the forests during the last glacial maximum promoting biological diversification, the melting of the polar caps increasing sea level etc.
Answer:B
Explanation:
The circulatory system is made up of blood vessels that carry blood away from and towards the heart. Arteries carry blood away from the heart and veins carry blood back to the heart. The circulatory system carries oxygen, nutrients, and hormones to cells, and removes waste products, like carbon dioxide.
Answer:
Rotation is when an item or object (specifically the earth) rotates on it's axis.
Revolution is when an item (the earth) orbits or "revolves" around another one (the sun).
The rotation of the earth determines how long a day lasts while the revolution (or orbit) determines how long a year lasts (with all of the season).
Also you don't have to put the ones in the parentheses ()
