Answer:

C. Enzymes increase the rate of chemical reactions by lowering activation energy barriers.

Explanation:

Enzymes are biological catalysts which increases the rate of a chemical reaction. They do so by lowering the activation energy barrier between reactants and products.

Enzyme function are dependent of physical and chemical environmental factors such as pH and temperature. High temperature will denature the enzyme and reduce or stop its activity while pH outside the range of that of the enzyme will slow down its activity.

They don’t provide activation energy to the substrate.

If the rice already had the genes that could make vitamin A, why did scientists use genes from other organisms?
meriva

Answer:

A. The rice genes didn't make the right type of vitamin A.

Explanation:

Regular white rice does not have the gene to produce beta carotene. The human body converts the beta carotene into vitamin A.

To increase the nutritional value of rice, the gene for beta carotene from daffodil flowers was inserted into the cells of endosperm of rice.

This allowed these cells of the genetically engineered rice varieties to produce beta carotene. Production of beta carotene imparted golden color to the rice grain and hence, the name.

natita [175]

Answer:

Answer B. Endosymbiosis

Explanation:

Early protists were first eukaryotic organisms and had several membrane bound organelles. The anaerobic protists evolved by acquiring purple bacteria. The purple bacteria have the ability to carry out aerobic cellular respiration. The endosymbiont transformed into mitochondria in due course of evolution. Similarly, the photosynthesizing protists were evolved by endosymbiosis of cyanobacteria which in turn was transformed into chloroplast during further evolution.
