Answer:
The correct answer is A the compound is a competitive inhibitor
Explanation:
Competitive inhibitor competes with the substrate to bind to the active site of the target enzyme and after binding to the active site the inhibitor slow down or stop the reaction catalyzed by that enzyme.
Competitive inhibitor basically effects the Km value of the enzyme thus decreasing the activity of the later.
Increasing the substrate concentration displace the inhibitor from the enzyme"s active site thus reducing the inhibitory effects of the later thus increasing the activity of the enzyme.
Answer:
Heterotrophic
Explanation:
I am assuming this question refers to animals, so the answer would be heterotrophic. This means that the animal must eat another organism to gain energy in their body.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
From reading what the process is, I think the answer should be C. The definition always says that you get energy from a chemical reaction and the products are CO2 and water. That can only mean that you have a hydrocarbon burning.
Chemically it looks like
C6H12O6 + 6O2 ====> 6CO2 + 6H20
Preventing wind erosion in a dry, sandy area is feasible through any of the following land-use practices:
a. Tillage - creates soil roughness by making furrows and ridges that are perpendicular to the direction of the wind.
b. Crop rotation - rotations of legumes followed by shrubs followed by trees then back to legumes work best.
c. Intercropping - is the most widely used particularly in countries with desert areas. One of the most popularly used is oasis agriculture that makes use of about 3 layers of vegetation.
The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:
- there was no sulfur compound added to the medium, that could be used as an electron donor.
- no oxygen was added to the medium so the organism died.
- there is some inhibitory chemical that is preventing the growth of the bacterium.
- you were using the wrong type of sunlight as the energy source for the bacterium.
Answer:
There was no sulfur compound added to the medium, that could be used as an electron donor.
Explanation:
In the given question, the bacteria which are found in the pond uses light energy to use carbon dioxide and form the glucose molecule. These bacteria are known as phototrophic bacteria.
The process of photosynthesis requires an electron donor and an electron acceptor to use molecule.
The organism when provided the light and carbon dioxide artificially in a culture, the bacteria were not able to grow. The reason for this could be accounted as that there was no electron donor found in the media like sulfur which could donate the electron during the chain reaction.
Thus, the selected option is correct.
