Lactase is essential for digesting lactose in milk. This enzyme is specific for this sugar. Why?Molecules and active sites vary

in size; only properly sized molecules can fit.There is a precise compatibility between the active site and the lactose molecule.Specificity refers to the action of the enzyme, such as hydrolysis, and relatively few molecules can be hydrolyzed.Reaction-specific enzymes assume a fit by folding around the most numerous substrate molecules.

Answer:

There is a precise compatibility between the active site and the lactose molecule.

Explanation:

An enzyme's active site has a specific shape, where only the substrate it is designed for can fit. It's much like a puzzle, where you must have the right pieces join together or else you wont get a coherent picture.

What is the endosymbiotic hypothesis?
stepan [7]

Answer: What does the endosymbiont hypothesis propose? It proposes that early eukaryotic cells acquired the precursors of mitochondria and chloroplasts by engulfing certain types of bacteria. ... Mitochondria, chloroplasts, and centrioles in eukaryotic cells each contain their own minute and unique supply of DNA.

Explanation:

The first piece of evidence that needed to be found to support the endosymbiotic hypothesis was whether or not mitochondria and chloroplasts have their own DNA and if this DNA is similar to bacterial DNA. This was later proven to be true for DNA, RNA, ribosomes, chlorophyll (for chloroplasts), and protein synthesis.
