The correct answer is Robert Koch.
He was a German scientist and is globally known as one of the fathers of microbiology and bacteriology. He is famous for his work with anthrax, finding out the causative agent of the fatal disorder to be Bacillus anthracis. He received a Noble prize for his work in 1905. He also gave four postulates known as Koch's postulates.
The four characteristics that were formulated by Robert Koch to determine the causative agent of a specific disorder are:
1. The pathogen or microorganism must be must be found in all the cases of the disorder.
2. The pathogen can be withdrawn from the affected host and can be developed in pure culture.
3. The pathogen from the pure culture must result in a disease when incorporated into a vulnerable, healthy laboratory animal.
4. The pathogen must be reisolated from the novel host and demonstrated to be similar to the originally inoculated pathogen.
The answer is D, Reticular activating system
<u>The equation that shows the decomposition of silver carbonate are;</u>
2Ag2CO3 ---------> 4Ag + 2CO2 + O2
<u>From the periodic table:</u>
Mass of silver = 107.8682 grams
Mass of carbon = 12 grams
Mass of oxygen = 16 grams
Molar mass of Ag2CO3 = 2(107.8682) + 12 + 3(16) = 275.7364 grams
<u>From the balanced equation above:</u>
2(275.7362) = 551.4728 grams<em> of</em> Ag2CO3 <em>produces</em> 4(107.8682) = 431.4728 <em>grams of Ag</em>
<u>Thus, in order to know the mass of Ag produced from 2.76 grams of Ag2CO3, we'll use the cross multiplication method; </u>
Mass of Ag produced = (2.76 × 431.4728) / (551.4728) = <em>2.16 grams</em>
Based on the calculations demonstrated above, the law of conservation of mass is applied.
The enzyme affects the reaction rate because it speeds it up, but lowers the activation energy.
