4 0

Answer and Explanation:

Although I was unable to find the multiple choices for the question, here is a simple, summarized explanation:

<u>Lactase</u> is an enzyme that is involved in breaking down lactose the sugar in milk. It is produced by a gene known as the LCT gene.

This enzyme is produced in the small intestine, and its main role is to digest a sugar called lactose, which is present in dairy products such as milk, and then transform it into simpler sugars - glucose and galactose -. This 'transformation' makes it easier for the body to absorb these sugars into the bloodstream and eventually turn them into energy.

inn [45]

Answer:

The H.M.S. Challenger embarked from Portsmouth, England on December 21, 1872 and changed the course of scientific history. Physicists, chemists, and biologists collaborated with expert navigators to map the sea. This interdisciplinary spirit has continued to the present day. During the 4 year journey, the voyages circumnavigated the globe, sounded the ocean bottom to a depth of 26,850 feet, found many new species, and provided collections for scores of biologists.

C. Wyville Thomson led the expedition but died of exhaustion from the journey, which ended on May 24, 1876. The Challenger had zig-zagged around the globe and had visited every continent, including Antarctica.

The reports of the Challenger expedition were supervised by Sir John Murray, whose biological conclusions were of great importance to the later development of marine biology. He concluded, for example, that the deep-sea fauna was not "ancient," in that it did not resemble the faunas found in ancient fossil deposits.
