Competitive inhibition vs allosteric inhibition

In competitive the substrate and inhibitor bind at the same active site - pretty straightforward. In allosteric regulation (speaking specifically about inhibition here), the inhibitor is binding at a site other than the active site, and changing the enzyme in some way to make it inactive.

Drag and drop the steps of digestion to order them from first to last step.
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

The teeth in the mouth bite off a piece of food.

The teeth continue to break the food into smaller pieces.

Saliva rushes into the mouth and mixes with the broken-down food.

The food travels down the esophagus.

The muscles of the stomach churn the food and continue to break it down.

The broken-down food, called chyme, enters the small intestine.

The remaining food passes into the large intestine. Water is absorbed from the large intestine and the rest of

the material is stored as solid waste until it is excreted from the body.

A regional lobster management board recently proposed a five-year moratorium on lobster fishing in the Atlantic waters south of
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

Statement D is not correct.

Explanation:

a. Lobsters are rival but not excludable: This is correct, as lobster is a common resource to which everybody can get access to with no need to pay for it. Besides, a person can consume only one animal.  

b. The lobster population is an example of the tragedy of the commons: This is correct, since people, acting by their own needs or interests, may exceed the capture of too many lobsters, affecting their population and, therefore, other users.

c. Reducing the quota on the number of lobsters any fisher can catch would have a protective effect on the lobster population: This is correct, since reducing the number of lobster catches will allow the animal population to reproduce more, leaving offspring capable of reaching sexual maturity, mating and reproducing again, and thus increasing the population size and stabilizing it.

d. If left unregulated, the lobster population will likely <u>increase</u>:  This is <u>not correct</u>. There need to be some regulation or management, because if not these animals will continue to be caught, even in the reproductive season, not allowing the population to stabilize. In this case, the population will likely decrease, rather than increase.

It prohibits the use of synthetic pesticide or insecticides, fungicides, synthetic fertilizers, growth hormones, antibiotics, and genetically modified organisms for the growth of crops. It utilizes the fertilizers of organic origin, like manure, compost, bone meal and also supports the crop rotation. It supports the biological pest control and fostering of insect predators.
