Answer:

The part of the microscope that is used to make small adjustments in the image of an object is the fine adjustment.

Explanation:

In the optical microscope, the fine adjustment knob allows precise focusing of the sample being studied. This means making minimal adjustments in order to better observe the microscopic image.

After the initial focusing with the coarse adjustment knob, with the fine adjustment it is possible to highlight the details that require more attention, as well as the refringency of the sample, if it exists.

The other options are not correct because:

A. Eyepiece is the lens that receives the image from the objective lens, that has contact with the eyes of the observer.

C. Coarse Adjustment is the rough magnification, used for the initial approximation of the image.

D. Objective lens enlarges and defines the image of the sample on the slide.

Svetlanka [38]

Answer: D. Plants do not eat, so both chloroplasts and mitochondria are needed to make enough energy for plants to grow.

Explanation: Option A is invalid since plant cells do use ATP. Option B is invalid since animal cells don't make their energy with chloroplasts. Option D is the most realistic one since chloroplasts in the plant are the ones that make the food for the plants, plant doesn't have a "mouth" so they depend on chloroplast to make food.

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

C. The enzyme with mutation 1 has decreased affinity for pyridoxal phosphate, whereas the enzyme with mutation 2 has lost the ability to bind to the substrates.

Explanation:

A coenzyme is an organic cofactor that binds with an enzyme in order to initiate or aid the function of the enzyme. A coenzyme binds to the active site of the enzyme (where the reaction occurs), thereby triggering its activation by modifying protein structure during the reaction. Some examples of coenzymes include Coenzyme A and Adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Pyridoxal phosphate is a coenzyme (it is the active form of vitamin B6) that is required for the function of cystathionase. Moreover, cystathionase is an enzyme that enables cells the synthesis of cysteine from methionine (transsulfuration pathway). The binding of pyridoxal phosphate to the enzyme increases the binding affinity of the enzyme for the substrate, thereby influencing its activity. In this case, it is expected that mutation 1 reduces the binding affinity of the enzyme to the cofactor, and thereby the cofactor is required at a higher concentration to restore normal enzyme activity.
