Answer:

Enzyme- Peptidase/protease

Explanation:

According to this question, a student is conducting an experiment to determine the roles of molecules in metabolic processes such as digestion. Based on what she found out that the molecule, which itself can be broken down into amino acids, can also break down proteins into amino acids, this suggests that the molecule being described is a PROTEOLYTIC ENZYME.

This is because an enzyme is made up of proteins which can be denatured or broken down into its simplest unit (amino acids) and also, a substance that breaks down amino acid is said to be PROTEOLYTIC.

However, another observation that the molecule is found in high concentrations in the small intestine was made, hence, the enzyme is a PEPTIDASE OR PROTEASE, which are secreted into the small intestine by the pancreas to aid digestion of proteins.

Tju [1.3M]

Adding large amounts of salt into your body causes your cells to become hypoglycemic (net movement into the cell outweighs net movement out) and causes the cells to boost. Via negative feedback loops, your body feels thirsty to dilute the salt in your cells to return them back to normal concentrations.

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

The various stages of development in children are reached at a unique time and rate for every child. But there are a number of common key categories to consider when looking at your child’s early health and development. Explanation:

In infancy, toddlerhood, and early childhood, the body’s physical development is rapid (Figure 1). On average, newborns weigh between 5 and 10 pounds, and a newborn’s weight typically doubles in six months and triples in one year. By 2 years old the weight will have quadrupled, so we can expect that a 2 year old should weigh between 20 and 40 pounds.

HOPE THIS HELPS :)
