Answer:
C. The enzyme with mutation 1 has decreased affinity for pyridoxal phosphate, whereas the enzyme with mutation 2 has lost the ability to bind to the substrates.
Explanation:
A coenzyme is an organic cofactor that binds with an enzyme in order to initiate or aid the function of the enzyme. A coenzyme binds to the active site of the enzyme (where the reaction occurs), thereby triggering its activation by modifying protein structure during the reaction. Some examples of coenzymes include Coenzyme A and Adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Pyridoxal phosphate is a coenzyme (it is the active form of vitamin B6) that is required for the function of cystathionase. Moreover, cystathionase is an enzyme that enables cells the synthesis of cysteine from methionine (transsulfuration pathway). The binding of pyridoxal phosphate to the enzyme increases the binding affinity of the enzyme for the substrate, thereby influencing its activity. In this case, it is expected that mutation 1 reduces the binding affinity of the enzyme to the cofactor, and thereby the cofactor is required at a higher concentration to restore normal enzyme activity.
A,B,C and D
A. increase in the number of available neurotransmitters
B. decrease in the number of available neurotransmitters
C. increase in the number of receptors and receptor sites
D. the ability of the synapse to change in strength and function when the pathway is overused or underused
Answer:
Heterozygous A: AO (remember, O type blood is a recessive allele. It's masked by A)
Heterozygous B: BB (h0m0zygous)
AO x BB --> AB, BO
Therefore, the genotypes of their offspring will be 1 AB to 1 BO, while the phenotypes will be 1 AB blood to 1 B blood.

The correct answer is C. Gardeners choose which plants they let reproduced based on the plant traits.
Explanation:
In general, selective breeding involves the intervention of humans in the reproduction of species, this includes mainly plant and animal species. Moreover, in selective breeding, humans choose which specific species or individuals reproduce to favor certain traits. For example, a farmer might allow only the biggest cows to reproduce because this will lead to bigger calves. In this context, the option that shows selective breeding is C because this shows the intervention of humans in reproduction by selecting the individuals that will reproduce.
