Most enzymes' optimum pH is neutral or close to neutral, like amylase found in saliva, which has an optimal pH = 6.8. Some enzymes prefer a more drastic pH, like pepsin, which can have an optimum pH of 1.7 to 2. Sometimes enzyme pH optima depends on where the enzyme is found.

Elanso [62]

Answer:

converted into fat and stored in adipose tissue

Explanation:

When protein is taken in excess amount, because it cannot be stored in the body, it can be broken down to amino acids, which is further used as carbon skeletons to synthesize fats, which is then further stored in the adipose tissues.

When the body is not receiving enough calories from other nutrient sources like carbohydrates and fats, the available protein is the used as energy to meet the body's energy demands, by converting it to fat.

Note that, excess intake of protein can be harmful to the body.

Inessa [10]

Answer and explanation;

-Aba is a suitable replacement because Aba and Cys have approximately the same sized side chain and are similarly hydrophobic.

-However, Aba cannot form disulfide bonds so it will not be a suitable replacement if these are required.

-Alpha-Aminobutyric acid is biosynthesized by transaminating oxobutyrate, a metabolite in isoleucine biosynthesis.

What can you say about the environments of these widely seperated layers
Alika [10]

Answer:

This means that the two separate rocks were once part of one piece of rock. These layers got separated most probably by continental drift as a result of tectonic plate movements. An example of such a fossil is the Mesosaurus, a freshwater crocodile-like reptile, that is found in Southern Africa and Eastern South America continents- that means they were once one land mass.

The environment in these two separate layers would most likely be different. As the layers drift apart from each other , they drift across latitudes that are determinants of climate in a region. Therefore, even the organisms in these two rock layers will evolve differently (even though they will share a common ancestor) in adaptation to respective environments – this is called allopatric speciation.
