Answer:
To determine the effect of toxin binding, you perform a Competitive Binding Experiment
Explanation:
Competitive binding experiments are very relevant when matters relating to cellular and or molecular toxicity are concerned.
They are used to determine the binding of a single concentration of labeled ligand in the presence of various concentrations of unlabeled ligand.
They are important because:
1. Validate a direct binding assay
2. Confirm whether or not a drug binds to the receptor
3. determine and explore how low-affinity drugs and receptors interact and it's resultant effects

Answer: D. Organisms that reproduce asexually create a large amount of offspring in a short period of time in order to maintain their population.
Explanation:
When an organism is able to reproduce asexually as opposed to sexually, it means that they do not require a mate to make offspring. Offspring of such organisms will therefore receive all their genes from one source.
Such organisms are able to reproduce very fast when they are presented with adequate conditions especially because they do not need another organism to do so. They will neither have to waste much energy nor have to go through the whole sexual process so they will be able to produce lots of offspring.
