If a chemical reaction catalyzed by an enzyme is being carried out, and there is a sudden, drastic decrease in temperature, what

is most likely to happen next?

Mostly the reaction rate will decrease because the activity of the enzyme hugely depends on temperature. For eg. most of the body enzymes work best at 37 degree Celsius. Many enzymes show highest activity at a particular temperature(usually the body temperature). 

<span>option b doesnt seem probable in this case. </span>
<span>option c is also not a good probablity because enzymes don't adapt. </span>
<span>option d seems like option b and hence not probable.</span>

Enzyme activity will decrease, and the reaction will proceed very slowly, or possibly not at all.

Describe how a hidden virus multiplies
Otrada [13]

Answer: Each time the host cell divides, the virus's genetic material is copied along with the host's genetic material. Then, under certain conditions, the virus's genetic material suddenly becomes active. It takes over the cell's functions in much the same way that active viruses do.

2. Mercury (II) oxide decomposes into mercury and oxygen gas according to the following
bija089 [108]

Answer:

7.8 moles are needed.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of oxygen produced = 125 g

Number of moles of mercury oxide needed = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation;

2HgO → 2Hg + O₂

Number of moles of oxygen:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 125 g/ 32 g/mol

Number of moles = 3.9 mol

Now we will compare the moles of oxygen with mercury oxide.

                       O₂         :         HgO

                        1           :             2

                     3.9          :              2×3.9 = 7.8 mol
