Answer:
Examples of environmental factors that may alter salivary peroxidase include periodontitis, oral hygiene, presence of heavy metal ions, bacteria (e.g., <em>Streptococcus gordonii</em>), anaerobic conditions, temperature, pH, etc.
Explanation:
Peroxidase is an enzyme found in all aerobic cells that act to convert toxic hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into dioxygen (O2) and water (H2O). This enzyme plays an important non-specific defensive role against proliferating micro-organisms that cause periodontal diseases such as periodontitis, which is a serious inflammatory disease affecting the tissues around the teeth. The most common environmental factors influencing the development of periodontitis include oral hygiene, smoking and age. In this regard, it has recently been shown that there is a positive correlation between salivary peroxidase activity and periodontal health, especially in non-smoker individuals. In consequence, it is expected that smoker individuals are more prone to suffer periodontal diseases by reduction of the salivary peroxidase levels.
 
        
             
        
        
        
If a higher concentration of salt is placed outside of the cell membrane, the water will leave the cell to bond with it. The loss of water from this movement causes plant cells to shrink and wilt.

Answer:
Option B
Explanation:
The presence of these structures in this stage may be a prediction of a common ancestor as these structures are not gills because they do not develop into gills in chicks and humans but being so similar to gill structures in fish at this stage in their embryo suggests that chicks and humans share a common ancestor with fish.
