No it is false. Because any substance is base what include OH. If it releases H ion, it should be acid.

Answer: FALSE

Explanation:

An acid is a substance which donates H⁺ (hydrogen) ions when are added to water or any other solution. The amount of H⁺ions liberates per acid molecule defines the acidity of the acid like weak or strong. The base is a substance which donates OH⁻ ions (hydroxide ions ) in the solution or water.

Why does catalase function most efficiently at the pH level of 7
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer: Catalase functions the best at the pH of 7 because the pH of 7 is not too acidic or alkaline. It is on the normal scale, like water. Catalase can't be placed in an acidic liquid. It can not be placed in an alkaline liquid either.

Hope this helps!

What does it mean for a membrane to be selectively permeable?
maw [93]

Answer;

Semi-permeability means that only certain molecules are allowed to pass through.

Explanation;

-Semi-permeability is one of the features of a cell membrane, which means that the membrane allows selective movement of materials in and out of the cell; that is only certain molecules can enter or leave the cell.

-For example smaller molecules such water and ions such as potassium and sodium ions are able to leave and enter the cell, while other molecules that are large such as protein molecules can not enter or leave the cell.

Suppose Gene 1 produces a protein involved in the development of the eye. In the simulation, what are two ways that you can prev
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer and Explanation:

A gene is a section of DNA. The change in the sequence of the DNA is known as mutation.  Mutation always changes the sequence of the DNA. Sunlight can cause mutation. Sunlight produces structures named thymine dimers. Thymine dimers produce twist in the shape of DNA. These twists make DNA hard to copy, which can lead to mutation. It is essential to use sunscreen to block UVA and UVB rays to prevent thymine dimers from emerging in our cells. The US Food and Drug Agency recommends an SPF (sun protection factor) to defend against skin aging and skin cancer. X-ray radiation is a form used in x-rays. The energy level of the X-ray radiation is very high that can produce free radicals. Free radicals can steal electrons from DNA that can cause mutation. By using medical images, we can decrease exposure to X-rays. Less exposure to X-rays prevents mutation and also prevents the production of gene protein in other body parts.
