Parasitism

Explanation:

This relationship in which the heartworms gets nutrient from the host and in the process, the host eventually dies from infestation is known as parasitism.

  • The organism that houses the heartworm is called the host
  • The heartworm in itself is called the parasite.
  • Parasitism is a positive - negative relationship in which one organism feeds on the other and causes harm to it in the process.
  • Plasmodium falciparum is the parasite of malaria in man.
  • In commensalism, one organism depends on the other without causing harm to it. Example is cattle and egret.
  • Mutualism is a positive - positive relationship in which both organism derives benefits from the other. Example is lichen.

The characteristics of the active site microenvironment of an enzyme can be largely independent of individual catalytic mechanis
Valentin [98]

Answer: (1) Providing an optimized orientation of the substrate.

(2) Decreasing the ∆G in reaction.

(3) Excluding excess water.

Explanation: The active sites of enzymes increase the rate of reaction because they decrease the activation energy of the reaction,and the physical microenvironment provides an optimal orientation of the substrate relative to reactive functional groups while excluding excess solvent,such as water.

Although some active sites may have amino acids that form salt bridges with the amino acids from a substrate,not all do, so this is not a generic strategy of active site microenvironments

The unique traits and genetic material information are encoded with the conformation structure and modification of protein.Prions which are responsible for transmissible sponginess encephalitis  is mammals which all known prion disease affect the neural tissues.

There are 253 amino acids exist in multiple conformations and isoform which is found in healthy organisms, most extensively studied proteins. Prions are not destroy easily and remains intact in the presence of radiation , disinfectant and extreme heat.
