Why do you think catalase has to work so quickly?

Biology
1 answer:
shtirl [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Hydrogen peroxide is toxic.

Explanation:

Hydrogen peroxide is a natural product of the reactions in the cell. However, it is toxic to cells and has to be broken down.

Catalase catalyses the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. It is found in all living cells and is very important to prevent the build up of hydrogen peroxide. If catalase didn't work quickly, hydrogen peroxide would accumulate in the cell and poison it, causing the cell to die.

Answer:

the answer is option c cellulose..

Explanation:

Cellulose is a molecule, consisting of hundreds – and sometimes even thousands – of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms. Cellulose is the main substance in the walls of plant cells, helping plants to remain stiff and upright. Humans cannot digest cellulose, but it is important in the diet as fibre.

Starch or amylum is a polymeric carbohydrate consisting of numerous glucose units joined by glycosidic bonds. This polysaccharide is produced by most green plants as energy storage

Glycogen is a multibranched polysaccharide of glucose that serves as a form of energy storage in animals, fungi, and bacteria. The polysaccharide structure represents the main storage form of glucose in the body.

What does it mean for a virus to have a lysogenic reproductive cycle? describe the process?
Dominik [7]

Lysogenic cycle  commonly occur in eukaryotes and is a process where viral DNA or RNA is integrated into the host cell as a new set of genes called prophage. However, the Viral DNA becomes the part of the cells genetic materials. 

Steps involves during lysogenic cycle:

1) Cell enters the viral genome

2) Integration of the viral genome into the host cell genome

3) Viral chromosome is copied by the host cell using DNA polymerase

4) Cell division occurs and transfers of virus chromosomes to the daughter cell

5) Any trigger in virus will result into detachment of viral genome from the host cell’s DNA.
