Answer: The correct option is (the region of an enzyme that attaches to a substrate).
Explanation:
The anabolic and catabolic processes in a cell are directed and regulated by enzymes. An enzyme has the ability to speed up a metabolic reaction by lowering the amount of energy needed to start the reaction. Without enzymes, these processes would be extremely slow. They also arrange the reacting molecules in a manner that will cause the chemical change to take place rapidly. It does so through the following steps:
--> molecules of substrate combine with the enzyme at its active site.
--> the substrate molecules combine with enzyme molecules for a short time, forming an enzyme-substrate complex.
--> New substance ( product) is formed which leaves the active site of the enzyme thereby making it free for another reaction to take place.
In conclusion, the ACTIVE SITE of an enzyme is the region of an enzyme that attaches to a substrate allowing chemical reaction to take place.
Answer:
Carbon dioxide can be transported through the blood via three methods. It is dissolved directly in the blood, bound to plasma proteins or hemoglobin, or converted into bicarbonate. The majority of carbon dioxide is transported as part of the bicarbonate system. Carbon dioxide diffuses into red blood cells.

Answer:
Energy is said to flow in a "one-way stream" through an ecosystem. In your own words, describe what that means. Energy is not recycled. Energy enters an ecosystem and flows through a food chain, but it is not reused, it is lost as heat.
Hope the answer helps:)
Answer:
In explanation.
Explanation:
Relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration.
-Both involve in the production of energy
-Both involve the exchange of gases
-Both the process takes place in cell organelle which was considered as endosymbiotic organism. They are chloroplast and Mitochondria, Photosynthesis takes place in the Chloroplast whereas respiration takes place in mitochondria.
-At critical condition both have an alternate pathway.
Extra: differences between photosynthesis and cellular respiration.
-Photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplast, whereas respiration takes place in mitochondria.
-Photosynthesis involves the production of carbohydrate and respiration involve breaking of carbohydrate.
-Photosynthesis occurs only during the presence of sunlight whereas respiration occurs all the time.
-In the photosynthesis process Oxygen is released whereas in respiration Oxygen is utilized.

nucleus, cytoplasm, mitochondria
