Answer:
The uncompetitive and mixed inhibitors are not affected by the substrate concentration while inhibition by a competitive inhibitor can be overcome by increasing the concentration of the substrate.
Explanation:
A competitive inhibitor competes with the substrate for the active site of the enzyme. When the competitive inhibitor combines with the enzyme and forms the enzyme-inhibitor complex (EI complex), the substrate cannot bind to the active site. However, the inhibition by competitive inhibitor can be overcome by increasing the substrate concentration around the enzyme which in turn would allow the substrate to bind to the active site and the reaction would proceed.
On the other hand, an uncompetitive inhibitor binds to the site at the enzyme different from the active site. Once the ES complex is formed, the uncompetitive inhibitor joins the complex to inhibit the enzymatic activity.
Likewise, a mixed inhibitor also occupies a site on the enzyme distinct from the active site for the substrate. A mixed inhibitor binds to the enzyme or ES complex to inhibit the reaction.
Since the binding site for uncompetitive and mixed inhibitors are distinct from the substrate-binding site on the enzyme, increasing the substrate concentration can not overcome the inhibition.
Answer: True
Explanation:
In incomplete dominance, neither of the alleles in an heterozygous condition is dominant, thing the organism will show a form of phenotype in which the physical trait expressed is a combination of the two alleles.
Answer:
Populations have variation in traits due to random mutation, crossing over and environmental conditions.
The correct option is INTRODUCTION OF EXOTIC SPECIES;
Exotic species refers to an introduced specie of an animal which is alien to the ecosystem in which it found itself and which has been transported to that ecosystem either intentionally or by accident. Exotic species normally have varieties of effects on the ecosystem to which they are introduced, sometimes the effect will be good and sometimes the effects could be devastating depending on the particular situation.
Factors which promote diversity include: larger size of the ecosystem, longer growing seasons and climatic stability.<span />
The mitosis stops when chromosomes are at the maximum condenstation, it is practically metaphase but the chromosomes are not attached to the spindles so they don't form the equatorial plate.
