Answer:
The correct answer is C) The compound is an allosteric inhibitor.
Explanation:
An inhibitor works in many ways, but this particular one binds to the allosteric site in the enzyme causing a decrease of the enzymatic activity. When this situation happens, the inhibitor doesn't bind to the active site, but it changes the enzyme's shape so it cannot work properly anymore.
TEMPURATURE:
Raising temperature generally speeds up a reaction, and lowering temperature slows down a reaction. However, extreme high temperatures can cause an enzyme to lose its shape (denature) and stop working.
pH:
Each enzyme has an optimum pH range. Changing the pH outside of this range will slow enzyme activity. Extreme pH values can cause enzymes to denature.
DIFFERENT SUBSTRATES:
Increasing substrate concentration also increases the rate of reaction to a certain point. Once all of the enzymes have bound, any substrate increase will have no effect on the rate of reaction, as the available enzymes will be saturated and working at their maximum rate.
I got these explanations from khan academy :)
1. Saltwater is completely different from freshwater
2. Only certain animals can live in saltwater/regular water
3. Plants may not require things from saltwater to survive, things can die
