Brrunno [24]3 years ago

Answer:

The activities of enzyme depends on the <u>temperature</u>, <u>ionic</u> conditions and the <u>pH</u> of the surroundings.

Explanation:

<u>Effect of temperature on enzymes</u>

Enzymes show low level of functioning at lower temperatures. As the temperature is raised, the activity of the enzyme increases. The enzyme activity becomes optimal at a specific temperature. Beyond this temperature, the enzyme's activity rate starts to decline until it gets denatured.

<u>Effect of ionic conditions on enzymes</u>

Studies show that certain enzymes require some cations for functioning. But an increased amount of cations or anions can inhibit the functioning of the enzymes.

<u>Effect of pH on enzymes</u>

Each enzyme has an optimum pH at which it works best. If the pH is increased or lowered than this optimum pH, then the activity of the enzyme starts declining until it gets denatured. Most enzymes work best at pH 7.0

Describe how the functional units for beta carotene, xanthophyll, chlorophyll a, and chlorophyll b are different. be sure to ide
leonid [27]

The pigments have a similar structure of 40 carbon atoms covalently bonded in a chain. Carotenoids contain oxygen atoms in their chemical structure (retinyl functional group) while xanthophyll does not. This makes carotenoids more non-polar compared to xanthophylls, hence move farthest in chromatography paper using a nonpolar mobile phase. Chlorophyll pigment, on the other hand, has chlorin rings (which are larger) as functional units hence move slowly in chromatography.

Photosynthetic rates can be measured by either the amount of oxygen they consume per particular time period or the amount of carbon dioxide produced per particular time period. This is conducted while immersed in water so as to measure bubble rate formation in case of oxygen production or the change in water pH in the case of carbon dioxide consumption.

When autumn approaches, the amount sunlight received by the plant is reduced due to longer night than days. Deciduous trees have adapted by losing chlorophyll a and b pigments (most important in photosynthesis) during this time. This leaves a higher amount of the other red and yellow pigments hence making the leaves change from green to yellow-red.

It is believed that this is the result of an ancient endosymbiotic relationship between a protist and a eukaryotic cell. The protist generates energy that the eukaryotic can utilize in its growth and reproduction while the protist is sheltered. This relationship became obligatory symbiosis over time.

Which of the following best describes an advantage of cloning?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

The correct answer would be "Can prevent genetic diseases".

Cloning refers to the process of making an identical copy of organism, cell or DNA fragments.

One of the applications of cloning is eradication or prevention of genetic diseases.

It is done by isolating the correct or functional gene and make copies of it in in-vitro conditions.

The gene or DNA fragment is then inserted back into the cell.

With advancement in cloning process and understanding of stem cells, cloning process also favors tissues and organ harvesting which also help in reducing diseases.
