What kind of cellular changes would be expected in oil-eating microbes moved from a warmer environment to the arctic?

The oil-eating bacteria helped in the removal of Gulf oil spill, but it is not that easy in Arctic region. The Arctic waters also comprise of cold-adapted, oil-consuming microbes. Though, they function at a diminished rate of metabolism in comparison to the warm water species.  

In the Arctic Ocean, the ocean currents do circulate, but over a larger surface area in comparison to the Gulf of Mexico, so it would take much more years for the bacteria to come back to the similar location. The cold temperatures also influence the nature of the oil, developing it more viscous and thicker that is tougher for the bacteria to dissociate.  

An oil spill in such regions takes even longer to dissociate, as the levels of oxygen in such regions go way down and bacteria cannot live in such conditions easily.

If a mother is type A and has a child who is type B what are the possible blood types of the father​
jenyasd209 [6]

The possible father's  blood groups are B, AB.

<u>Explanation:</u>

If the mother blood type of A, and the father blood type is AB, B then the child is B. Each biological parent donates one of their two ABO alleles to the child. The blood types in our body are classified as the four paternal blood types and the four maternal blood types.

The blood type has the 16 combinations of the blood samples. The genetic information from the body is independently inherited to the ABO blood types alleles. In the Rh factor, the genetic information is inherited from the one parent to another.

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

There is no image showing the shape of an enzyme, however, the question can still be answered based on basic understanding. The answers are;

- Less binding of substrate

- won't follow the lock-and-key pattern of enzyme binding

Explanation:

An enzyme is a biological catalyst that regulates the rate of chemical reactions in living systems. Enzymes are proteinous in nature and every protein is made up of an amino acid sequence. The amino acid sequence forms a three-dimensional shape that determines the functionality of the enzyme.

Enzymes catalyze reactions by binding to their substrates in a lock and key pattern. This makes enzymes substrate-specific. If the enzyme's normal shape changes, the following will occur:

- Less binding of substrate

- won't follow the lock-and-key pattern of enzyme binding.
