Certain environmental changes can denature proteins. Denatured proteins lose their three dimensional structure and when the prot

ein is an enzyme, they lose their ability to function. PH is just one factor that can change the effectiveness of an enzyme. What other factor might the students test regarding catalase specificity?

Answer:

Presence of an inhibitor for the catalase enzyme and high temperatures.

Explanation:

Catalase is an enzyme that catalyzes the decomposition of H₂O₂, giving O₂ and H₂.

In the presence of an inhibitor, the enzyme stops its activity, and the substrate can not join the catalase's active site.

The other factor that affects the specificity of the catalase is the temperature. Highs temperatures cause the loss of the quaternary, tertiary, and secondary structure, causing the interruption of the catalase activity.

Answer:

Catalase can be described as an enzyme that catalyses the conversion of hydrogen peroxide into hydrogen and oxygen.

Other than pH, other factors that might affect the catalase specificity are :

1. Temperature:

Very low or very high temperatures will cause the enzyme to get denatured, The active site of the catalases will not be able to fit the hydrogen peroxide molecules.

2. Presence of an inhibitor:

An inhibitor might get fit into the active site of the catalase hence blocking the site for hydrogen peroxide to fit into the active site of catalase.

What are the relevant parts of your skull as a whole
prisoha [69]

Answer:

The human skull consists of 22 bones (or 29, including the inner ear bones and hyoid bone) which are mostly connected together by ossified joints, so called sutures. The skull is divided into the braincase (neurocranium) and the facial skeleton (viscerocranium). Its main task is the protection of the most important organ in the human body: the brain.

The brain is almost entirely enclosed by the neurocranium with the exception of the foramen magnum and other foramina at the skull base which serve as entry and exit point for blood vessels and cranial nerves. Also, the skull provides support for all of the facial structures.

True or false Sepals are found at the tops of the stamen.
jekas [21]
It is false. Sepals collectivaly called calyx protect the outermost part. Its the part that enclosed the developing bud. If you have ever seen a closed rose the green part that eventually opens and can be seen at the base of the flower is the sepal.

What is created from mitosis in animals?
lapo4ka [179]
A. two identical nuclei
<span>Mitosis, simply put, is the division of the nucleus of a cell. It is the phase in the cycle of a cell in which the two chromosomes in a cell divide and separate in a nucleus of their own. These chromosomes are completely identical. As a result of mitosis, two identical cells are formed and are known as daughter cells. This process copies and transfers DNA into both the cells that are formed as a result of Mitosis.</span>
