<span>The correct answer is: d. 1/4; 1/8.
</span>
Baby's head must be large and must grow rapidly because its brain during the first 9 months of growth reaches half of its adult size. So, the head has to (compared to the size of their body) accommodate that brain. Sometimes it is even bigger than one-quarter of full baby’s length.

Osmosis occurs when there is a different concentration of solute molecules
mamaluj [8]
The osmotic potential within the cell is greater than the outside because the solution in the cell is less concentrated. Therefore, the water from inside the cell will move outwards due to the difference in potential via the process of osmosis. The cell becomes plasmolysed, or shrinks, due to the loss of water.

How does a competitive inhibitor slow enzyme catalysis?
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

By preventing the binding of substrate to active site

Explanation:

Competitive inhibitors exhibit a type of reversible inhibition. These are the substances that bind to the binding site of the substrate on the enzyme, that is the active site.

One the competitive inhibitor is bound to the active site on the enzyme, the substrate cannot bind to it and there is no enzyme-substrate complex formation. Hence, the competitive inhibitor inhibits/slow down the enzyme catalysis by occupying the active site of the enzyme and thereby not allowing the substrate to bind to the enzyme.
