Answer: D: Enzymes increased the rate of the chemical reactions carried out during metabolism.

Explanation:

Energy production in the cell requires the participation of many enzymes in a process called energy metabolism. Many of these reactions occur very slowly in the absence of a catalyst (a substance that accelerates the speed of chemical reactions). To solve this problem, cells have developed a way to accelerate the speed of reactions. In this context arise the enzymes that are the biological catalysts. Most enzymes are globular proteins. They have specificity (preference) both for their substrates (the molecule that will undergo the chemical reaction) and for the type of reaction on the substrate.

The right answer is Damselfish

The damselfish is a species of herbivorous fish that contributes to a balance of marine plants by eating algae among corals, to prevent the proliferation of algae and to promote the growth of coral reefs. The parrotfish (Scaridae) or "coral cleaner" has the same similarity of the diet with the same equilibrium that the damselfish offers, but it can also feed on coral.

Which of the following statements is true about isotopes?

kirill115 [55]

Isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number, although all isotopes of a given element have the same number of protons in each atom. The term isotope is formed from the Greek roots isos and topos, meaning "the same place"; thus, the meaning behind the name is that different isotopes of a single element occupy the same position on the periodic table.
