When cellular respiration occurs within a cell, carbon dioxide is formed as a waste product. The carbon dioxide is transported o

ut of the cell and absorbed by the blood stream. There, the carbon dioxide undergoes a chemical reaction and forms carbonic acid within the blood. When the carbonic acid reaches the capillaries in the lungs, the enzyme carbonic anhydrase helps reverse the reaction, and the carbonic acid is converted back to carbon dioxide and water. Which of the following would most likely happen if a person's body stopped producing carbonic anhydrase?

Answer:

Even we don`t have options to choose, the correc answer would be: The blood`s acidity would increase and become toxic.

Explanation:

Carbonic anhydrase plays a key role in the regulation of PH and fluid balance in different parts of our body.

In the stomach lining, it plays a role in secreting acid; and also helps to make pancreatic juices alkaline and our saliva neutral.

These are some functions that wouldn`t be developed in our body with the absence of carbonic anhydrase.

I hope it helps!

Which explanation best explains the role of enzymes as catalysts in living systems?
Katyanochek1 [597]
Enzymes are catalysts that can be used more than once. If a substance needs to get broken down then it can use the corresponding enzyme to attach itself and break it down into simpler substances. After this is gone, the next substance might come up and attach itself to the enzyme like a lock-and-key model.

Therefore the answer is A) Enzymes accelerate chemical reactions without getting used up in the process.

Review the many ways in which microbes process oxygen by completing each sentence. then, please arrange the sentences in a logic
siniylev [52]

1. With respect to oxygen requirements, an <u>aerobe </u>can use gaseous oxygen and possesses enzymes to process toxic oxygen products.

<h3>What are enzymes?</h3>

Proteins called enzymes aid in accelerating our bodies' chemical reactions, or metabolism. Some compounds are created, while others are broken down. Enzymes are a component of all life. Enzymes are created by our bodies spontaneously.

2.  Expanding on this classification, an <u>obligate </u>aerobe cannot grow without oxygen.

3. Still other organisms, called<u> facultative anaerobes</u>, metabolize by aerobic respiration but can adapt to anaerobic environments.

A facultative anaerobic organism is one that can switch from aerobic respiration to fermentation in the presence of oxygen to produce ATP.

Base your answer to the question on the information below and on your knowledge of biology.
vodomira [7]

Answer:

They can perform photosynthesis.

Explanation:

Autotrophs are organisms that can produce their own food, and heterotrophs are organisms that feed on other organisms. This means that the ameba and paramecium can eat only other microorganisms.

The euglena is not limited to this. Hypothetically speaking, if there were no other microorganisms around it (which is unlikely), the euglena would not die as long as it is exposed to sunlight. Thanks to chloroplasts, organelles that contain chlorophyll, it can perform photosynthesis - a process in which, with the help of sunlight, carbon dioxide, minerals, and water are used to synthesize food.
