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

if bread is exposed to air at room temperature, fungi inevitably colonize it. what does this say about the presence of fungal sp
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

This supports the fact that fungal spores exists in the atmosphere or air

Explanation:

Fungi is a kingdom of living organisms that have distinguished characteristics from plants and animals. They propagate themselves using structures called SPORES. Some of these spores are able to withstand extreme or adverse unfavorable conditions and germinate when conditions are favorable. Most fungal spores are air-borne i.e are dispersed by air.

According to the information in this question, Fungal spores will colonize bread that is exposed to air at room temperature. This implies that fungal spores are present everywhere in the atmosphere looking for opportunities to germinate. The bread is a place conducive for fungal growth due to the presence of nutrients and a favorable temperature.
