Answer: Option A.

Electrons,carbon and energy.

Explanation:

Chemorganoheterotrophs are organisms that uses organic substrates to produce carbon needed for their growth and development. They derive their energy from oxidation and reduction of organic substances. The use the reduced carbon produced by autrotophs as as source of electrons, carbon and energy. Example is fungi that uses carbon as electron donor and source for carbon and energy.

A scientist observes that, when the pH of the environment surrounding an enzyme is changed, the rate the enzyme catalyzes a reac
vredina [299]

Answer:

A- A pH change can cause the enzyme to change its shape

Explanation:

A rise or fall in the pH of the medium from the optimum of pH 7 usually affect  the  enzymes' active sites  of  and therefore the  shape and  the  rate of enzyme activity.

Assuming  the pH is too low, the enzyme medium becomes acidic;Acidosis. The high Hydrogen ions concentration  interacts with the R-groups of the amino acids moiety of the enzymes, this interaction affects the ionization of the  R-groups, disrupting the ionic bonding holding these R-groups in shape.

This results in loss of the 3-Dimensional shape arrangements of the protein molecule  and therefore of the active sites. Since active sites of  enzymes  determines the specificity of the <u>enzymes substrate- complex </u> to give <u>enzyme-product complex,</u> the catalytic activity of the enzymes decreases, <u>the rate of  reaction decreases,and products formation stops, and the reaction also stops.</u>

The same is applicable to extremely high pH=Alkalosis.

However, the effective buffer system of the body prevents this scenarios from happening in real sense in the body. Through mopping by the  haemoglobin, excretion by the kidney, etc
