How does decreasing the temperature when food is refrigerated slow decomposition and bacterial growth
juin [17]

Answer:

Low temperatures slow down chemical reactions, the action of enzymes, and delay or inhibit the growth and activity of microorganisms. The lower the temperature, the slower the chemical reactions, enzymatic action and bacterial growth will be.

Explanation:

Refrigeration consists of keeping the products at low temperatures, but above their freezing temperature. Refrigeration prevents the growth of microorganisms that can withstand temperatures above 45º C and many that can survive temperatures ranging from 15 to 45º C. If we lower the storage temperature of perishable foods, we will be able to significantly reduce the speed of reproduction of the vast majority of microorganisms, which cause decomposition and generate possible diseases in consumers. Refrigeration decelerates the metabolism of organic matter until it stops almost completely when we reach -18 ° C (international conservation standard for most frozen products), in addition to achieving partial or total inhibition of altering processes in food, such as certain enzymatic reactions or the metabolic degradation of proteins, thus delaying the decomposition of these.

Is the heme molecule attached to hemoglobin during the primary level or tertiary level of organization?
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Tertiary.

Explanation:

Primary structure of proteins refers to the order of amino acids that make up the protein. The heme is an nonprotein non-amino acid, so it is not involved at this stage.

Tertiary structure of proteins is the overall 3-D folding of the protein (it comes after secondary, which involves folding into a repeated pattern). The heme bonds to its correct position on the hemoglobin during this stage and helps in correct folding.
