Answer

           As we know that gluten is a family of protein found in grains like wheat, rice,barley etc. when it is taken by body the digestion of protein start in stomach and finish in small intestine. Here an enzyme belong to hydrolases enzymes called protease, pepsin and trypsin start digestion of protein molecules. these enzymes actually beak down the peptide bonds present amongst amino acids of protein  and release them.

metabolism in liver

                       protein molecules along with free amino acids move towards liver in blood stream , here amino groups are removed from amino acids in the form of ammonia which are very toxic and removed from the body in the form of waste products, while the remaining compounds is converted to some other form which is then store or use in body for energy purposes,

All of the following statements about enzymes are true EXCEPT
kari74 [83]

Answer:

(D) Enzymes can function only within living cells.

Explanation:

<em>Enzymes are biological molecules that are proteinous in nature and speed up the rate of biological reactions.</em>

Option A is true because enzymes are not used up or changed when they are used to catalyze reactions

Option B is true. Enzymes are very specific with regards to the reactions they take part in.

Option C is true. Some enzymes contain non-protein component that assist them in their functioning. These non-protein components are called co-factors.

Option E is true. Because enzymes are proteinous in nature, they can be destroyed/denatured by high temperatures.

<em>The only untrue option is D. Some enzymes can function outside living cells. For example, the enzymes involved in digestion can function not just within living cells but also outside it. The functions of some of the digestive enzymes can be demonstrated in the laboratory.</em>

The correct option is D.

Tongue rolling is a dominant trait, following simple dominance. Mom can't roll her tongue but dad can. By looking at this pedigr
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

The correct genotype would be-

mom: homozygous recessive, father: heterozygous or homozygous dominant, and son : 50%(if father heterozygous dominant) to 100%( if father is homozygous dominant) chances of being hetrozygous dominant.

Explanation:

Listing the genes in the way that they indicates the real combination of alleles is the genotype of individual.

Ability to roll your tongue is a dominant character which has a dominant and a recessive gene. Assume that the dominant allele ‘R’ is for the ability to rolling tongue and the recessive allele ‘r’ for unable to rolling our tongue. As we know mother can not roll her toungue she must have homozygous recessive alleles that means she has two copy of recessive allele. The father could posess any combination of these alleles: RR (homozygous dominant), or Rr(heterozygous dominant).

Thus, the correct genotype would be

mom: homozygous recessive, father: heterozygous or homozygous dominant, and son : 50%(if father heterozygous dominant) to 100%( if father is homozygous dominant) chances of being hetrozygous dominant.
