You are at a restaurant where they offer both grass-fed and grain-fed beef, and are trying to decide which is the most sustainab

le choice. Which of the following statements is most logical?
Grain-fed beef is the most sustainable choice. These cattle have a high feed conversion rate, meaning it takes a lot of feed to produce a pound of meat, making it very nutritious.
Grain-fed beef is the most sustainable choice. Cows from feedlot operations are healthier because they are routinely given antibiotics.
Grass-fed beef is the most sustainable choice. These cattle are free to walk around and therefore they grow and gain weight much more rapidly than grain-fed feedlot animals, so you would get more value for your money.
Grass-fed beef is the most sustainable choice. Grass-fed beef represents a net gain for the human food supply because cows eat grasses that we can’t eat (from land that is typically unsuitable for human crops) and turn it into beef that we can eat.

Answer:

Grass-fed beef is the most sustainable choice. Grass-fed beef represents a net gain for the human food supply because cows eat grasses that we can’t eat (from land that is typically unsuitable for human crops) and turn it into beef that we can eat.

Explanation:

Cattle raised on a primarily foraged diet are termed grass-fed or pasture-raised; for example meat or milk may be called grass-fed beef or pasture-raised dairy. The term "pasture-raised" can lead to confusion with the term "free range", which does not describe exactly what the animals eat.

That said, grass-fed cows eat (mostly) grass, while grain-fed cows eat (mostly) an unnatural diet based on corn and soy during the latter part of their lives. To maximize growth, the cows are often given drugs, such as antibiotics and growth hormones.

umka21 [38]

Answer:

No changes occur to the K1 value, its concentration remains higher than the concentration of the inhibitor and enzyme inhibitor complex

Explanation:

Uncompetitive inhibition is an example of a reversible inhibition. Reversible inhibitors bind to enzymes by weak non-covalent bonding. Thus the formation and dissociation of this association is rapid. uncompetitve inhibition lowers the Vmax and Km.
