Iron
A side note about haemochromatosis:
Haemochromatosis is a disease where there is too much iron is in the body. It is the most common form of iron overload disease. There are two types of haemochromatosis:
<span>
Primary haemochromatosis is a genetic disorder inherited from family members. People with this condition absorb too much iron and it ends up accumulating in the body, especially in the liver. </span><span>
Secondary haemochromatosis is caused by other blood-related disorders such as anaemia, or may be due to many blood transfusions, long term alcoholism and/or other health conditions. </span><span>If left untreated, iron overload can lead to liver damage. That’s why it’s important to receive treatment as soon as possible after diagnosis to prevent further complications, including liver disease, liver cirrhosis, liver failure, liver cancer, heart disease, arthritis or diabetes. Some organ damage can be reversed if detected early enough and treated appropriately.

If you smoke cigarettes there’s a chance that you are causing damage to your liver – increasing your risk of developing liver cancer and decreasing your liver’s ability to rid your body of dangerous toxins. In turn, this could leave you more susceptible to the damaging effects of some medications on the liver too. </span>
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Enzymes can only fit into the base it was made for.
Answer:
C. The chance of survival decreases when there is intraspecific competition for resources among surviving yearlings
Explanation:
The survival rate of the offspring of the fish species will decrease as a result of the huge number of eggs produced giving rise to overpopulation. Pressure will be on the limited available resources. As a result of this, Intraspecific competition would occur as members of the same fish species would compete for the limited resources.
Interference and exploitation competition are two types of Intraspecific competition that can reduce the population size of the fish species.
For Interference competition, the dominant and stronger members would secure adequate supply of the limited resources to detriment of the weaker and less dominant ones. This leads to the death of those members that are weak to compete successfully, thereby leading to a reduction in population size.
In exploitation competition, it involves all individual members of the fish species sharing the limited resources equally, while none of them gets an adequate amount. With time, a great size of the population decrease would be noticed when compared to that of Interference competition.
Answer: the beetle is neither harmed nor helped by the mite.
Explanation:In this case, the mite benefits because it gains transportation from the beetle. If the beetle is neither harmed nor helped by the mite, then the relationship between the mite and the beetle would be an example of commercialism.
