Answer: Workplace electrocusion

Explanation:

The human body is a good conductor of electricity. The workplace electrocution occurs due to electric shock. This leads to workplace injuries that may often lead to disabilities and can also be fetal. The workplace electrocution can also lead to cardiac arrest, and tissue damage due to thermal burns. The severity of injuries may depend upon the intensity of electricity, health of the victim and how the current flows in the body.

According to the given situation, the freshly mopped floor is a source of water and water, as well as metal, which is a good source of electricity. The electric wire is an energized source of electrical energy that will allow the flow of electric current in the body, as well as contact with the floor containing water, which will enhance the effect. Thus this is an example of workplace electrocution.

The characteristics of the active site microenvironment of an enzyme can be largely independent of individual catalytic mechanis
Valentin [98]

Answer: (1) Providing an optimized orientation of the substrate.

(2) Decreasing the ∆G in reaction.

(3) Excluding excess water.

Explanation: The active sites of enzymes increase the rate of reaction because they decrease the activation energy of the reaction,and the physical microenvironment provides an optimal orientation of the substrate relative to reactive functional groups while excluding excess solvent,such as water.

Although some active sites may have amino acids that form salt bridges with the amino acids from a substrate,not all do, so this is not a generic strategy of active site microenvironments

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

Arroyo integrated the term “watershed“ by saying that Oxfam and Swiss Re with the Rockefeller foundation are helping farmers building hillside terraces to conserve water and they are also providing for insurance when the droughts do come.Water shed relates to drought and heat because it will suffer and there would be less water to fill surface water resources and less water to make its way through the earth and into groundwater reservoirs.
