The enzyme the organism will miss most is ALPHA AMYLASE.
This is because, alpha amylase is the enzyme that is responsible for hydrolyzing alpha bond of starch in order to break it down to maltose. Oligo 1,6 glucosidase on the other hand is only able to hydrolyses alpha 1,6 glucosidic bond, which is just a step in the conversion of a polysacharride to smaller sugars.

Answer:

The correct answer would be alpha amylase.

Alpha enzyme is an enzyme that catalyzes the break down of alpha linkage present in polysaccharides such as starch, glycogen et cetera.

The help in breaking down complex polysaccharides into simpler units which can be easily absorbed by the body.

For example, alpha amylase is present in the form of salivary amylase and pancreatic amylase in humans. They breakdown the starch into smaller units such as maltose and dextrin.

In contrast, oligo-1,6-glucosidase is an enzyme that catalyzes the breakdown of alpha 1-6 linkage in some oligsaccharides.

Thus, the organism would miss alpha amylase more as compared to  oligo-1,6-glucosidase.

Answer;

-Scaffolding

Explanation;

Scaffolding as a metaphor in teaching and learning describes the adaptive and temporary support provided by a more competent person (e.g., teacher or adult) to a less competent person (e.g., student or child). For example; mother–child interaction during the game of peekaboo.

Scaffolding is one of the several aspects of effective instruction that can be applied in the context of language learning. Although teachers might be enthusiastic about the idea of scaffolding, it must be borne in mind that scaffolding is not simply synonymous with teacher support.

Which of the following is an example of the "ethical dilema" of creating and destroying human embryos?
NeTakaya

The option that is an example of the "ethical dilemma" of creating and destroying human embryos is option A: Some people..."believe an embryo has the same moral standing as a human being?"

<h3>What moral dilemmas do embryonic stem cells present?</h3>

The infinite differentiation potential of iPSCs, which can be used for human cloning and pose a risk for the creation of human embryos and human-animal chimeras, is the center of the current ethical debates surrounding stem cell-based therapies.

However, due to the fact that it involves the killing of human embryos, hESC research is morally and politically contentious. The controversy over abortion has a strong connection to the issue of when human existence begins in the United States.

What happens when the parasympathetic nervous system is activated
kolezko [41]

Answer:

Body functions stimulated by the parasympathetic nervous system (PSNS) include sexual arousal, salivation, lacrimation, urination, digestion, and defecation. The PSNS primarily uses acetylcholine as its neurotransmitter. Peptides (such as cholecystokinin) may also act on the PSNS as neurotransmitters. The parasympathetic nervous system is composed mainly of the cranial and sacral spinal nerves.
