Answer:

Yes. It's alive.

Explanation:

According to the characteristics of life, for something to be considered a living being, it needs to be able to reproduce, evolve, present metabolism, respond to stimuli, possess cells and have genetic material.

A bush in my yard has all these characteristics, since this bush is a vegetable, which indicates that it has cells and genetic material, which can be passed on to its descendants through the production of gametes for reproduction. In addition, this plant goes through the process of photosynthesis (metabolism), responds to stimuli (grows towards sunlight) and evolves through time.

Nikitich [7]
Enzymes are made of strings of amino acids chemically bonded to one another. These bonds give each enzyme a unique structure, which determines its function. They mostly break down carbohydrates and fats. Once a protein source reaches your stomach, hydrochloric acid and enzymes called proteases break it down into smaller chains of amino acids. Amino acids are joined together by peptides, which are broken by proteases.

Question 23 (6 points)
Stels [109]

Answer: 1. Sea urchins and sea otters

2. They are prey for carnivores.

3. Sea otters, star fish

Explanation:

Sea urchins and sea otters are carnivores as they eat on the flesh of starfish and sea urchins respectively.

Starfish feed on the kelp forests which are the producers in the food chain and the starfish is the primary consumer and prey for sea urchins.  So, starfish and kelp forests are the prey in the marine ecosystem.

Keystone species is the one which controls the population of other inferior species in an ecosystem. Here, sea otters consume sea urchins so the population of sea urchins remained in control Starfish controls the population of kelp forest.
