Answer:

Pepsin breaks the proteins into simple amino acids.

Explanation:

Digestion is the process of break down of the larger food particles into the simpler substances. The digestion process requires enzymes and digestive juices.

Proteins are made of the amino acids. The enzyme pepsin helps in the breakdown of proteins into the simple peptides. The proteins present in the test tube is hydrolyzed by the enzyme pepsin and breaks down the proteins into simpler amino acids.

Thus, the answer is pepsin breaks the proteins into simple amino acids.

Pepsin is one of three principal protein-degrading enzymes in the digestive system, the other two being chymotrypsin and trypsin. During the process of digestion, these enzymes collaborate to break down dietary proteins to their components, i.e., peptides and amino acids.

Katyanochek1 [597]

The type of ecological succession being described in the illustration is primary succession.

<h3>What is primary succession?</h3>

It is a form of succession that occurs when an area that has never been occupied by any living organism becomes exposed and eventually gets colonized by living organisms.

It is quite different from secondary succession which happens when an area that has been housing biotic communities before gets disrupted by a major disturbance.

A new island formed by volcanic action has never housed any biotic community before. Thus, only primary succession can occur there.

If the ATP-binding site of an enzyme is buried in the interior of the enzyme, in a hydrophobic environment, is the ionic interac
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Stronger; a hydrophobic has lower dielectric constant. The lower the dielectric constant of the interior, the stronger the ionic interactions.

Explanation:

Ionic interactions are the electrostatic interactions between the oppositely charged ions. The strength of ionic interaction depends on the magnitude of the charges on the ions, the distance between the charged groups and the dielectric constant.  

Here, the dielectric constant is the property of the medium in which the ionic interactions are taking place. Dielectric constant represents the number of dipoles present in the medium or solvent. A medium with higher dielectric constant would attract the oppositely charged ions towards its own dipole and would thereby, make the ionic interaction between the ions weaker.

Given that the ionic bonding between substrate and enzyme is taking place in the hydrophobic interior, ionic interactions would be stronger since the hydrophobic medium has a lower dielectric constant.

The lower number of the electric dipoles or their absence in the hydrophobic interior would not attract the oppositely charged groups of substrate and enzyme towards its own dipoles as the water with higher dielectric constant would have done. This would allow stronger ionic interaction between the substrate and the enzyme.
