Normally when one studies an enzymatic reaction you need to do the following:
1. The initial rate of the reaction - or initial velocity - Vo - (when you've just combined the enzyme and the substrate) - you measure the amount of product made per unit time right at the beginning of the reaction.
2. You have to do this for each concentration of substrate - this would be a range of substrate concentrations.
3. You plot these on a graph with (substrate, Vo) as your (x,y)
What you will see is a graph that rises from 0,0 and eventually plateaus.
The plateau indicates that the enzyme is saturated with the substrate and is working as fast as it can. This is the maximum velocity or Vmax.

What small animal is being studied in the red forest?
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

Explanation: . What small animal is being studied in the red forest? a) rabbit b) dormouse c) finch  The researchers studied the bones of animals eaten by the white tailed eagles. What were they? a) fish b) mice c) small birds  Why do storks require large, undisturbed forests? Storks, wolves, beavers, deer, and eagles have been reported in the area. Today, radiation levels in the Red Forest can be as high as one roentgen per hour, but levels of ten milliroentgens per hour are more common. More than 90% of the radioactivity of the Red Forest is concentrated in the soil.

Suppose no crossing-over takes place. Use step 5 (anaphase 1) to explain why meiosis will still increase genetic variation.
MissTica

Meiosis increases genetic variation due to random segregation which occurs.

In anaphase I of meiosis, the homologous pairs (one maternal and one paternal chromosome) are moved apart to opposite ends of the cell and this process occurs random. This allows the formation of gametes with different sets of homologues. In this phase sister chromatids remain attached at their centromeres (not segragated as in mitosis).
