Answer:

The mechanism of enzyme action.

Explanation:

The lock and key mechanism refer to the mechanism of enzyme action. The enzyme is a bio catalyst which enhance the biochemical reactions without changing itself. In the lock and key mechanism, a specific substrate will attach to the active site of the enzyme to form an enzyme-substrate complex. It's like a specific key fits with the lock. The active site is the portion of the enzyme, where it gets attached to the substrate. Then the substrate becomes the product and detaches from the enzyme. Now the enzyme becomes free and another specific substrate will attach to carry on the enzyme action.

UNO [17]

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

As temperature increases the rate of enzyme activity increases until it reaches approximately 37 degrees Celsius. As temperature increases beyond 37 degrees Celsius, the enzyme activity decreases. The activity decreases because the enzyme denatures.

Any enzyme has certain temperature, pH and pressure to maintain its activity. Only at the ideal or ambient parameters the enzyme works. Most of the enzymes that are present in the human body gets activated by 37 degrees and gets denatured beyond that temperature.

How are the terms nucleotide, nitrogenous base, and nucleic acid related to each other?
hoa [83]

A nucleic acid is made of nucleotides, and nitrogenous bases are a part of a nucleotide.


DNA is a nucleic acid.  The nucleotides in DNA are made up of a sugar (deoxyribose), a phosphate group, and one nitrogenous base (which will be either adenine, guanine, cytosine, or thymine).
