Answer:

The correct answer is option C. "Increase in temperature â Increased rate of evaporation â More moisture in air".

Explanation:

Thermohaline circulation, also known as Global Ocean Conveyor, is the way that vast masses of water are moved in the ocean controlled by horizontal differences in temperature and salinity. This movement is usually slow, and serves as a way to transport heat, nutrients and other materials trough the ocean. When thermohaline circulation gets unusually slower, the heat is not efficiently transported. This results in an increase in the overall temperature, which increases the rate of evaporation, increasing the level of moisture in air and finally resulting in more frequent severe storms.

What would happen if another substance competed for the enzyme active site?

Lelu [443]

That's what is called competitive enzymatic regulation. If there are more of that substance than the enzyme substrate, then most of the enzyme, if not all depending on the substance's concentration, will be inhibited on its action. If there are more substrate then the competitive substance, the expected reaction for that enzyme will happen at an expected rate. If the ratio substrate:substance is 1:1 then the reaction enzyme-substrate is very slowed down.
