The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

A. bioremediation

B. mutualism

C. quorum sensing

D. quorum settling

E. mass-settling

Answer:

C. quorum sensing

Explanation:

Quorum sensing is the gene regulation mechanism used by the bacteria to communicate with the other bacteria.  The quorum sensing process depends on the number of bacterial cells or the density of the cells.

When the bacterial number increase in number then the bacterial cells send the signal to the nearby cells and and regulates the expression of the gene.  In the given question, the same chemical signal process depends on the density of the cell and thus quorum sensing is correct.

What would happen if another substance competed for the enzyme active site?
Lelu [443]
That's what is called competitive enzymatic regulation. If there are more of that substance than the enzyme substrate, then most of the enzyme, if not all depending on the substance's concentration, will be inhibited on its action. If there are more substrate then the competitive substance, the expected reaction for that enzyme will happen at an expected rate. If the ratio substrate:substance is 1:1 then the reaction enzyme-substrate is very slowed down.
