Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

As temperature increases the rate of enzyme activity increases until it reaches approximately 37 degrees Celsius. As temperature increases beyond 37 degrees Celsius, the enzyme activity decreases. The activity decreases because the enzyme denatures.

Any enzyme has certain temperature, pH and pressure to maintain its activity. Only at the ideal or ambient parameters the enzyme works. Most of the enzymes that are present in the human body gets activated by 37 degrees and gets denatured beyond that temperature.

Word bank: (Thermosphere) (Aurora boreal is) ( Large-scale air turbulence and mixing at this layer) ( Stratosphere) (The coldest
Lyrx [107]
  • Thermosphere - Fourth layer of Earth's atmosphere.
  • Aurora Borealis - Ionosphere layer of thermosphere.
  • Large-scale air turbulence and mixing at this layer - Troposphere
  • Stratosphere - Second lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere. No Air turbulence so airplanes fly in this layer.
  • The coldest temperatures in the atmosphere occur at the junction- of Stratosphere and mesosphere
  • Maximum ozone - Ozone layer in Stratosphere

Explanation:

Atmosphere is formed by mixing of gases. The layers of atmosphere is given below.

1. Troposphere -

  • The first layer of the atmosphere.
  • Weather occurs in this layer.

2.Stratosphere -

  • The second layer of Earth's atmosphere.
  • Contains Ozone layer.

3. Mesosphere -

  • The third layer above the stratosphere.
  • Coldest layer.

4. Thermosphere -

  • The fourth layer of the atmosphere.
  • Warmest layer.
  • Ionosphere - lowest level of thermosphere above mesosphere.
  • Aurora Borealis, Northern and Southern lights are seen in this layer.
  • Exosphere - outermost layer of thermosphere.
  • Satellites are in this layer.
  • Outer space with no gravity.

If all the droplets were the same size, which would fall most slowly through the apparatus?
Alenkinab [10]
If all the droplets were the same size, the droplet with the smallest charge <span>would fall most slowly through the apparatus. Basically, buoyancy is the same for all droplets but the electrical force would be different for each. The higher the electrical force the greater is the gravitational pull towards that droplet. Therefore, the droplet that has the </span>smallest charge<span> would drop most slowly.</span>
