if a protein is heated to a high temperature, what do you predict would be the most likely effect on the protein?a)the protein w

ould become denatured, losing its shape, and would not be able to function properly. b)the protein would work more efficiently as the higher temperature increased the reaction rate. c)the protein would break apart into the individual amino acids that made up the protein. d)the protein would fold into a different shape and catalyze a different type of biochemical reaction.

Answer:

a)the protein would become denatured, losing its shape, and would not be able to function properly.

Explanation:

Proteins have an ideal temperature to do their job efficiently. When this temperature increases or decreases intensely, the protein will undergo denaturation.

Denaturation is the term that refers to the situation where proteins lose their three-dimensional conformity and consequently all of their function is lost. In addition to temperature, pH can also cause denaturation and this process can also happen with other molecules, but it occurs mainly in proteins.

1. Increased efforts to conserve areas such as rain forests are necessary in order to
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

1. Protect biodiversity

2. An indicator species

3. Biomagnification

4. Cutting down all the trees for lumber

5. Bioaccumulation

Explanation:

1. Conserving areas such as rain forests protect biodiversity because rain forests hold one of the highest biodiversity. They carry different types of resources that support different forms of life and at the same time, the organisms that live there support each other as well.

2. An indicator species is an organism that scientists can observe to see if there are changes in the environment it lives in. They judge the change or the implications based on the absence of the species in the environment (in which they used to be present), the presence of the species, and markers of adaptation due to the change in the ecosystem.

3. Biomagnification is a term used when contaminants that were consumed by the organisms in the lower trophic level are passed on to the next trophic level in higher concentrations. This is why those in the highest trophic levels are affected the most because they get the higher concentration of contaminants. DDT was banned when this phenomena was observed.

4. The greatest decrease in rain forest stability would be due to the cutting of trees. We can disrupt stability by gathering resources like nuts from some trees or when you remove one species of plant for medicine. However, the trees are an essential part of the rain forest because each part or area of the tree support different organisms. By cutting the whole trees off and several of them, you doom the organisms that rely on them as well.

5. As mentioned above, bioaccumulation is often interchanged with biomagnification but they differ in the usage of the terms. Like biomagnification, it talks about the accumulation of contaminants in organisms that ingest or absorb them. But bioaccumulation is a term used in a smaller scale, where it talks about the accumulation of the contimants in the tissues of the organism and not how they are passed on.

Occasionally a child is born with an extra chromosome 13, but never do you see a child with an extra chromosome 12, why?
Morgarella [4.7K]

This is because some of the trisomies (one extra chromosome, three instead of two) are fatal, births cannot survive.

Theoretically, trisomies can occur with any chromosome, but often result in miscarriage.

The types of autosomal trisomy that survive to birth in humans are:

Trisomy 8 or Warkany syndrome 2

Trisomy 9

Trisomy 13 or Patau syndrome

Trisomy 18 or Edwards syndrom

Trisomy 21 or Down syndrome.
