TCGAGTC is the matching strand sequence!

Answer:

CTGAGCT

Explanation:

DNA has a double stranded helical structure. The nucleotide of a DNA consist of the following bases; adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G) and cytosine (C). In DNA, the bases are on both strands and they pair with each other as follow

  • Adenine only binds to thymine and vice versa
  • Guanine only binds to cytosine and vice versa

When one strand is read in one direction, the other strand is read in the reverse direction; this is because the strands move in opposite direction and are written/represented as such.

So, based on the above, the opposing strand of AGCTCAG is written as CTGAGCT not as TCGAGTC.

Answer:

d. Competitive inhibition will decrease because the proportion of the active sites occupied by substrate will increase.

Explanation:

Enzymes are bio catalysts in living cells responsible for aiding biochemical reactions.

Their active sites are primary protein  3D structure  for binding with substrates during   reactions.

Enzymes reactions are usually affected by inhibitors(e.g methyl alcohol) which compete with the active site with the actual substrate(ethyl alcohol) ,

This is an example of competitive inhibition. The more ethyl alcohol available, the more active sites  occupied, therefore denying the inhibitor methylalchol  chances to the active site, thus preventing the formation of toxic formaldehyde, and more of non toxic substances from formation of more ADH-METHYL ALCOHOL COMPLEXES at the active sites

How does phosphorus reach surface waters​
egoroff_w [7]

It is an essential element for plant life, but when there is too much of it in water, it can speed up eutrophication (a reduction in dissolved oxygen in water bodies caused by an increase of mineral and organic nutrients) of rivers and lakes. Soil erosion is a major contributor of phosphorus to streams.
