Answer: A reactant that is catalyzed by an enzyme.

Explanation:

The substrate is the substance or molecule over which an enzymes works during a biochemical reaction. The substrate attach itself to the active site of the enzyme and the enzyme- substrate complex is formed. The substrate is then transformed into products, which get released from the active site of the enzyme. The active site becomes free to accept another substrate molecule to be transformed into product. The enzyme exhibit catalytic property which facilitates the conversion of the substrate into the product.

What is the role of energy in living Organisms? Is it a more or less important role than other characteristics of life? Defend y
sdas [7]
Energy is vital for living organisms is our fuel . if there is no energy formed we can t talk about life because things cells that are too little to experience things have this purpose to form energy in order for us to function.we need to see the human body in a constant dynamic because every second is breaking and forming Atp( the primary source of energy) and using that atp for everything moving thinking keeping us healthy ex transporting macromolecular substances like glucose that is lately broke down (glicolisis) and forms other molecules of AtP .And the cycle goes on.In my opinion is decisive because if there is no energy there is no life the other things could work if the the everyday light goes away the moon can still be there we can still be there but at some point we will dissapear.Energy is requiered for everything to occur it repairs builds and maintains body tissues without it the has no chance to survive .Because there will be no metabolic processes and no cycle of energy exchanges.

Which of the following investigators was (were) responsible for the following discovery? In DNA from any species, the amount of
Zarrin [17]

Answer :Erwin Chargaff   a Biochemist

Explanation:

He formulated the base paring of double helix of DNA. He reasoned that since the percentage of four  DNA  bases are of this proportions in human;

                                  Adenine=30.9% and Thymine =29.4%;

                                  Guanine=19.9% and Cytosine =19.8%

Then,  the amount of adenine will always be equal to thymine,

And the amount of Guanine equals to cytosine based on this percentages of distribution.  

(Adenine and Guanine are large, molecule of Purines, while thymine and Cytosine are Pyrimidine)  

 

He concluded (although scientist believed, he did not explicitly stated this) that this should be the base paring patterns in DNA molecule. This is the first Chargaff Rule.

His second rule is that the DNA composition, in the relative amount of the four bases Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine varies in proportion from one organisms to another. And this is the basis of molecular diversity.
