False the answer is false

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The salt concentration inside the body of freshwater fish is higher as compared to the water in which it live . However this is not the the case with marine fish which have low salt concentration in their blood  as compares to the salt in the sea water. In order to maintain sufficient salt in the fresh water fish body, specialized cell in the gills take ions from water and transport it into the blood.  Thus it can be said that A freshwater fish regulate its salt levels by pumping salt inward across its gills

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Ph that is below or above the optimal range will result in enzyme activity loss.  if the pH changes above or below optimum range affects the charges that is present on the amino acid molecules. Amino acids presrnt in the active  site of enzymes that attracted each other may no longer continue to be attracted. Again, the shape of the active site of the enzyme changes due to the substrate binding will be affected. conclusively, we can say that the enzymes are denatured.

b) researchers are most likely to use a negative control when measuring the rate of reaction in the presence of each organisms. enolase is controlled  with no enzyme.

c) c) Since the C.aurantiacus grows best at 550C , we can say that the enzymes that they produce must be at this temperature and so they must be sensitive to this temperature ; hence they would show more activity at 550C temperature.

How is osmosis different from diffusion
kupik [55]
Diffusion is a spontaneous process in which molecules move with their concentration gradient. For example, if you place food coloring in water, the food coloring will slowly diffuse through the water until the entire solution has been balanced.

Osmosis is specifically the movement of <em>water</em> through a semipermeable membrane - meaning a membrane that can let some substances in but keep others out - and, similar to diffusion, it moves with its concentration gradient. For example, if you place a glucose solution sealed in plastic in water, water will move into the plastic to even out the concentration of glucose in the entire solution because glucose is too large to diffuse freely.
