Answer:
The rate of reaction when the enzyme is saturated with substrate is the maximum rate of reaction, Vmax. ... This is usually expressed as the Km (Michaelis constant) of the enzyme, an inverse measure of affinity. For practical purposes, Km is the concentration of substrate which permits the enzyme to achieve half Vmax.
Explanation: lmk if this helps
Answer: The correct statements are 1 and 2:
1.Self-pollination occurs when the pollen from the anther is deposited on the stigma of the same flower, or another flower on the same plant.
2.Cross-pollination is the transfer of pollen from the anther of one flower to the stigma of another flower on a different individual of the same species.
Explanation:
Pollination is the transfer of pollen grains from an anthers to a receptive stigma. In most species of flowering plants, external agents bring about pollination. Also, flowers have evolved special structures and mechanisms to ensure successful pollination.
There are two types of pollination
--> Self pollination: This takes place when mature pollen grains from the anther of a flower fall on the stigma of the same flower or that of another flower on the same plant. This type of pollination brings the male gametes and egg cells of the same plant together. The resultant offspring show very little genetic variation.
--> Cross pollination: This occurs when mature pollen grains of a flower are transferred to the stigma of a flower of another plant of the same or closely related species. This brings the male gametes and egg cells of two different parent plants together. Therefore, there is greater genetic variation among the offspring.
Answer: Option B) each parental strand serves as a template for the synthesis of a complementary strand
Explanation:
In semi-conservative DNA replication,
- a parent double-stranded DNA splits in two.
- Each strand is then read by the enzyme, DNA polymerase, to ensure accurate replication of a newly synthesized strand
- the new strand contains nucleotides that are complimentary to free nucleotides present in the parent strand.
Thus, option B perfectly describes semi-conservative replication of dna
