azamat

Answer:

The correct answer is a cofactor for enzyme activity.

Explanation:

Carboxypeptidase is a metallo-enzyme in which zinc is present at active site. It has been accounted for by Coleman and Vallee that the protein can be deactivated by the removal of zinc and that reactive again by the expansion of zinc, cobaltous, ferrous, nickel. which suggests that zinc is acting as the cofactor for this metalloenzyme. Zinc is a cofactor for up to 300 chemicals in the body. Proteins that utilization zinc as a cofactor is known as metalloenzymes.

Thus, the correct answer is a cofactor for enzyme activity.

Explanation:

Given:

The radius of a sphere = 2 meters

Use π = 3 (Approx)

Find:

The surface area of a sphere.

Computation:

⇒ The surface area of a sphere = 4πr²

⇒ The surface area of a sphere = 4(3)(2)²

⇒ The surface area of a sphere = 4(3)(4)

⇒ The surface area of a sphere = 48 meter²

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 2 genes.

Explanation:

The number of genes involved in the coloration of the strain of cereal grain, could be either dark tan, medium-dark tan, medium tan, light tan, or cream-colored if all F1 are medium tan when crossed a dark tan crossed with cream-colored, can be calculated as follow:

suppose there are only two gene - TT dominant over tt and CC dominant over cc

then the cross would be - RRCC - rrcc

gametes - RC and rc

Cross F1: RrCc

Self cross in F2:

offspring by Punnet cross are:

RRCC  -->1/16  

RRCc,  RrCC .---> 4/16

RrCc, RRcc, rrCC--->6/16

rrCc, Rrcc--->4/16

rrcc ----> 1/16

thus, the correct answer is 2 genes
