Answer:
The open area where the substrate is attached to an enzyme is called the active site.
Explanation:
The active site of an enzyme corresponds to the place where the tertiary structure of this molecule leaves a free space to couple the substrate and be able to catalyze a chemical reaction.
Since the enzyme-substrate complex functions as a <u>key lock system</u>, the active site has a three-dimensional configuration that only admits certain molecules as substrate, which determines its specificity.
When the terminal (third) phosphate is cut loose, ATP becomes ADP (Adenosine diphosphate; di= two), and the stored energy is released for some biological process to utilize. The input of additional energy (plus a phosphate group) "recharges" ADP into ATP (as in my analogy the spent batteries are recharged by the input of additional energy). Hope this helped.
Answer:
Mutations and crossing over during sexual reproduction
Explanation:
Mutations, the changes in the sequences of genes in DNA, are one source of genetic variation. Genetic variation can be a result of sexual reproduction during when chromosomes crossover during Meiosis I, which leads to the creation of new combinations of genes.
