Answer: Unavailability of Enzymes site

Explanation:

Enzymes are protein that speeds up chemical reaction.

when the substrate concentration is low the reaction rate is low bit an increase in substrate concentration leads to an increase in reaction rate and abundant free enzyme available (E) to bind the added substrate.

When the substrate concentration is high the reaction reaches a stable/ plateau stage as the enzyme active sites become saturated with substrate (ES complex), and no free enzyme site to bind the added substrate.

Reaction plateau because there are no free enzyme site to bind to by the Subtrate this is because all the site are occupied by substrate so an increase in substrate concentration will not increase the reaction rate until there are free enzymes site to bind to by the substrate in the absence the reaction reaches plateau.

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

O4) All of the answer choices are correct.

Explanation:

Everyone that has teeth can be identified if they have a dental record. A forensic dentist can see what diet the person had, did they smoke, the age, the sex of the person and they are a source of DNA. We can examine the bite mark of the person in question and find out who they are. So teeth are very useful even when everything else on the remains is very badly damaged.
