If the amount of sodium in the blood increases, what would a negative feedback control mechanism be expected to do?
Crank

Answer: Decreases

Explanation:

The amount of sodium in the blood will increase as the main function of the negative feedback is to maintain the homeostasis inside the body.

If blood pressure is too high, then heart rate decreases because of this the blood vessels increases in the diameter and the kidney retains less water.

These changes will return the blood pressure to be normal. The same process gets reversed when the blood pressure decreases.

muminat

Answer:

D) They can increase the reaction rate for a given reaction by a thousand-fold or more.

Explanation:

Enzymes are like catalysts with the only difference that they are bio-molecules. Biochemical/chemical reactions are slow because of 'transition state barriers' which require a lot of energy to overcome so enzymes rather than overcoming transition state barrier provide an alternate pathway for biochemical reactions which require comparatively less energy. Thus presence of an enzyme leads to an increase in reaction rate because alternate pathway which requires less energy makes the rate of chemical reaction rapid by a thousand-fold or more.
