Answer:

C. growth of plants after a forest is destroyed by fire

Explanation:

When the ecological succession occurs on the land or region which was never inhabited by plants previously, the process is called primary succession. On the other hand, secondary succession occurs on land where the existing vegetation was destroyed by some disturbances. Secondary succession is a fast process compared to the primary succession as the soil is already present to support the growth of plants.

Among the given examples, the growth of plants after the vegetation of forest was destroyed by fire represents the process of secondary succession. Growth of vegetation on bare rocks, in the cracks in the concrete surface, or after the melting of glaciers represents the process of primary succession.

Increasing the substrate concentration in an enzymatic reaction could overcome which of the following?
bixtya [17]

Answer:

(C) Competitive inhibition

Explanation:

When a substrate competes with and inhibitor, what they are actually doing is competing by the active site of the enzyme. In terms of probabilities, when there is much more of one molecule of X than its competitor Y, it is more likely for any of the molecules of X to reach the active site of the enzyme than for any of the molecules of Y.

Then is one would like to reduce the effects of an inhibitor reversible bonded to an enzyme, one possibility is to increase the concentration of a substrate (which in turn means that there will be a higher relative number of its molecules in the media), increasing the probability to meet the active site of the enzyme and as a result displacing the inhibitor (assuming it not increased as well).
