Answer:

Interstitial fluid

Explanation:

Otitis media is an acute infection of the middle ear. It is caused mainly by bacteria and is associated with nose and throat infections. The causative bacteria pass into the auditory tube from the nasopharynx and cause infection in the middle ear. There is a build-up of a large amount of fluid interstitial fluid in the tympanic cavity resulting in reddening and bulging of the eardrum.  

Children have almost horizontal auditory tubes that decrease drainage and therefore, are most likely to become affected. To treat the condition, a small tube is inserted into the eardrum to provide a pathway for the drainage of the fluid.

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Ph that is below or above the optimal range will result in enzyme activity loss.  if the pH changes above or below optimum range affects the charges that is present on the amino acid molecules. Amino acids presrnt in the active  site of enzymes that attracted each other may no longer continue to be attracted. Again, the shape of the active site of the enzyme changes due to the substrate binding will be affected. conclusively, we can say that the enzymes are denatured.

b) researchers are most likely to use a negative control when measuring the rate of reaction in the presence of each organisms. enolase is controlled  with no enzyme.

c) c) Since the C.aurantiacus grows best at 550C , we can say that the enzymes that they produce must be at this temperature and so they must be sensitive to this temperature ; hence they would show more activity at 550C temperature.

What is the effect of defective or missing N-acetylglucosamine phosphotransferase on lysosomal protein sorting?
LiRa [457]

Answer:

The deficiency in this enzyme causes that it begins erroneously label other enzymes. Because the activating proteins are not properly labeled, they escape into spaces outside the cell and do not disintegrate substances inside the cells, that is, lysosomes cannot perform their function correctly. This causes waste products, which must include carbohydrates, lipids and proteins, accumulate in specific masses as inclusion bodies.

noname [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

They need salt in the water to the tune of 35 grams / kg. If they are thrust into fresh water with virtually no salt, they do not get the natural osmosis process taking place.  They will bloat and die.

Interesting question. Nature has a strange way of making things right. Those salt water shrimps can't over run the fresh water ones, for the reason given above.
