You've just read a research project titled: "Prolonged cell phone use causes brain tumors."
kvasek [131]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is B) number of patients with brain tumors</em>

Explanation:

In a scientific experiment, an independent variable is a variable which is being changed by the scientist or changes naturally. The effect of the independent variable is studied on another variable which is termed as the dependent variable. Hence, the dependent variable can be described as the variable which is under study in a scientific experiment.

1.
Allushta [10]
1. The answer is "<span>the energy required to start the reaction".

</span>This energy is called as activation energy of the reaction. If the activation energy is high, reaction is slow. Enzymes help to carry out the reaction by a new path by reducing the activation energy. But the energy of reactants and the products remain as same as without enzyme.

2. The answer is "reaction in cells would be too slow to sustain life<span>".

</span>If the activation energy is very high for the reaction, then that reaction will be very slow and will require more time<span> to complete the reaction. Then survival is very low. Hence, the roll of enzymes is very important to sustain life.</span>
