Answer:

c  contains the maximum number of hydrogen atoms.

Explanation:

Fats are a class of lipids containing two kinds of monomers, fatty acids and glycerol. ... Triglycerides containing three saturated fatty acids are called saturated fats. Close packing of saturated fats promotes stability and causes saturated fats to form solids at room temperature.

Saturated fats are solid at room temperature, while unsaturated fats are liquid at room temperature. This is because saturated and unsaturated fats differ in their chemical structures. Saturated fats have no double bonds between the molecules , which means there are no gaps and the fat is saturated with hydrogen molecules. Unsaturated fats have double bonds, which break up the chain of hydrogen molecules and create gaps, allowing the fats to liquefy at room temperature. Saturated fats are found mainly in animal food such as meat and dairy products, while unsaturated fats are found in plant food and fish.

How can a mutation in an organism’s genes affect its traits?
REY [17]

Answer:Mutations can affect the body by altering its physical characteristics (or phenotype), or they can affect how DNA (genotype) information is encoded on the organism.

Explanation: three ways a mutation can affect an organism:

Some mutations have no significant effect on the phenotype of the organism. This can happen in many situations: a mutation may occur in a non-functional DNA fragment, or a mutation may occur in the protein encoding region, but ultimately does not affect the sequence of protein amino acids.

A student is measuring the effect of different temperatures on the effect of enzymes in biological systems. What temperature ran
viktelen [127]

Answer:

A. 25 °C, 30 °C, 35 °C, 40 °C, 45 °C  

Explanation:

Each enzyme has a temperature at which it works best. In humans and many animals, that temperature is around body temperature (37 °C or 98.6 °F). Most enzymes are denatured and work poorly at 40 °C (104 °F).

That automatically eliminates Option B.

I would pick a temperature close to 37 °C (98.6 °F) and temperatures at intervals above and below that.

Option D is wrong because it includes no temperatures above body temperature.

Option C is wrong, because it includes temperatures of 45 °C and 55 °C, at which the enzymes will be denatured.

That leaves Option A as the best answer. It includes only one temperature above 40 °C.
