Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

The rate and amount of decomposition of alcohol depends on the amount of body fat in an individual. The activity of enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase that breaks down alcohol is affected by concentration of body fat and water.  

The higher the body fat and the lower is the body water and fluid, the higher is the activity of enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase.  

Thus, the higher activity of enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase ensures higher rate of breakdown of alcohol due to which level of alcohol concentration in blood of  an individual reduces.  

Hence, option A is correct

5.01 Why is the cell membrane essential for cell homeostasis?
hodyreva [135]

A cell membrane does not actually maintain homeostasis by itself. The term homeostasis refers to maintaining a relatively stable internal environment inside of a multi-cell organism. Since the internal environment is the interstitial fluid that is around each and every cell, then homeostasis has more to do with what is outside of a cell than what is inside of it. :)

How does farming affect water, land, and air?
eimsori [14]
  • Excessive irrigation can affect water quality by causing <em>erosion</em>, <u>transporting nutrients</u>, <u>pesticides</u>, and <u>heavy metals</u>, or <u>decreasing the amount of water that flows naturally</u> in streams and rivers.
  • Soil erosion due to land clearance and grazing. contaminated soils due to <u>pesticides</u> or <u>overuse of fertilizers</u>.
  • Air emissions from livestock operations make up 1<u>4.5 percent of global greenhouse gas</u>. Livestock farming emits several <u>greenhouse gases </u>that contribute to <u>climate change</u>, and may also be subject to the effects of <u>climate change</u> due to increased animal stress in dealing with rising temperatures.

G If we (humans) do not have enough oxygen to allow aerobic respiration to occur, what will happen? Group of answer choices
ohaa [14]

Answer:

We will produce lactate/lactic acid through fermentation.

Explanation:

During strenuous activities, muscle cells do not sufficient supply of oxygen to meet the energy requirements. As a result, anaerobic respiration occurs to temporarily supply energy and lactic acid is produced instead of carbondioxide and water.

Lactic acid accumulates in muscles and eventually preventing further contraction. The muscle cells are said to have incurred an 'oxygen dept' since they have used up more energy than was possible from the oxygen supplied to them. The largest amount of lactic acid a body of a trained athlete can tolerate is about 127grams, and the largest tolerable oxygen is about 16 litres.
