Answer:
Hypotheis:
<em>If high amounts of product in the samples, '+++' , correlates with optimal temperatures and pH for enzyme activity, then...</em>
- <u>A- Pepsin</u>
- <u>B- Amylase </u>
- <u> C- thermophilic enzyme</u>
Explanation:
Enzymes are specialized proteins that function as biological catalysts- <u>they speed up chemical reactions.</u> As proteins, these are susceptible to changes in temperature and pH- they function best at optimal values for both conditions, but can be denatured, rendering them inactive at relative extremes.
Each enzyme provided has its own optimal temperature and pH values.
- Thermophilic enzymes are usually found in regions characterized by high temperatures. They show high thermostability, and do not become denatured at high temperatures- they thrive, and do not function well at lower temperatures.
- Amylase is a hydrolase digestive enzyme found in the mouth, that acts on polysaccharides like starch to break 1,4 glycosidic bonds between glucose molecules. It works best at a physiological (neutral) pH and temperatures (around 37°)
- Pepsin, another digestive enzyme, is a peptidase that breaks down proteins into peptide molecules. It is found in the stomach lining, where the pH is typically low i.e. acidic due to the hydrochloric acid in digestive juices.
Thus from the table A- pepsin, B- Amylase and C- thermophilic enzyme can be hypothesized.
18. <em>Penny</em>: Used to measure mineral toughness; <em>Cuprum</em> penny's toughness is 3.
<em>Hand Lens</em>: Could be used to measure the hardness of the mineral; the glass can be used as a scratch platform; it can also be used to test the luster of the mineral tile; the mineral is rubbed in the glass portion of the tile and a powdery strike of the stone is given to distinguish the colour of the rock.
<em>Geological hammer</em>: Used to break down the mineral to assess whether or not it has cleavage, and to detect fractures
<em>Pocketknife</em>: Used to define mineral tenacity; the tenacity of the mineral can be silky, malleable, sectile, elastic, or flexible.
17. Volcanoes are holes or cracks in the lava-flowing crust of the earth. They are normally placed on the borders of tectonic plates as they are created as the plates clash and create gaps. In other words, volcanoes located at convergent-plate boundaries.
I am joyous to assist you anytime.
Answer: H2O
Explanation: Inorganic Compounds usually lack Carbon. The “C” in the other answers stand for Carbon.
I think it would condense into liquid droplets
C. Upward; downward. As the hot rock rises, cooler rock flows downward to take its place next to the core, where it is heated and becomes buoyant enough to rise again later
