The correct answer is "It will perform less than optimally unless the pH was increased."

This is because the curve on the graph shows pH versus reaction rate. If we follow the x-axis (the bottom one) to a pH of 7, it is at an extremely low reaction rate compared to other points of the graph. If we continue along, we see that the reaction rate increases as the pH increases. Therefore, the enzyme will perform less than optimally unless the pH is increased.

Hope this helps, and hope I'm the brainiest! :)

The slower an object moves the more kinetic energy it has. True False

Lady_Fox [76]

False , because its backwards

There will be more energy 'locked away' in a massive lorry that is moving at 20 m/s than in a motorbike travelling at the same speed.

Also the faster it goes the more kinetic energy the lorry will have.

A lorry moving at high speed will have much more kinetic energy than a lorry moving at low speed.

Therefore a fast moving car or lorry will cause more damage in an accident than a slow moving one because this kinetic energy has to be turned into other forms including sound, heat and stress on the other vehicles.

The kinetic energy of an object therefore depends on two things:
(a) the mass of the object (m)
(b) its speed (v)

The formula for kinetic energy of an object of mass m travelling at speed v is:

Kinetic energy (k.e) = 練v2

What is the DEPENDENT variable in this experiment? (Hint: What depends on the independent variable?)

Nutka1998 [239]

Could you give more information? For the most part, the dependent variable is what you’re recording. For example, if you wanted to see how plants would grow in different conditions, plant height would be the dependent variable. The height DEPENDS on the condition it was grown in. Hope this helps!

Which environmental factor could lead to a decrease in genetic variation in a population of tuna?

jeyben [28]

Answer:

The environmental factor that could lead to a decrease in genetic variation in a tuna population is an increase in pollution (second option).

Explanation:

There is a correlation between genetic variability and environmental pollution, the latter being a factor that impacts negatively on the variability of a specific population.

The concept of pollution stress not only implies a low rate of reproduction, but it is also a factor that prevents genetic exchange with other populations, which is a factor that makes the genetic variability decrease in a population.

For these reasons an increase in pollution implies a decrease in genetic variability in a tuna population.

Other options, such as an increase in food availability, a decrease in tuna fishing or a decrease in tuna predators, are environmental factors that contribute to increased genetic variability.
