Answer:

1. Soluble

2. Catalyze

3. Denatured

Explanation:

1. We eat in order to obtain energy. However, this food is often in a complex state and needs to be broken down into its simplest form. The process of digestion ensures this occurs in living organisms. Digestion is the process of breaking down large food molecules into a much more simpler molecule that can be passed on to the blood stream for absorption by cells. These simpler molecules must be SOLUBLE in water for them to be transported into each cell via the bloodstream.

2. The breaking down of food molecules described above is facilitated by certain proteinous chemical agents called ENZYMES. Enzymes are biological catalysts i.e. they help speeden up the rate of biochemical reactions in living systems. In the case of digestion, specific enzymes chemically acts on specific food molecules. For example, amylase acts on carbohydrates, protease acts on proteins etc.

3. As stated above that enzymes are proteinous, it means they possess the characteristics of proteins. One of those characteristics is the ability to get denatured by increase in temperature. High temperature causes an enzyme to lose its specific 3D shape, affecting its functionality. Hence, the enzyme is said to be DENATURED.

Do either of your diseases in part A have the same pattern of inheritance as the model colorblindness mutation you made?How do y
Alborosie

Answer:

Autosomal dominant pattern.

Explanation:

If the pattern of inheritance is same in the disease just like the model of colorblindness mutation so we can say that the disease has autosomal dominant pattern because the colorblindness mutation also occur due to the autosomal dominant pattern. Sometimes the disease is also inherited from their parents through genetically. So both diseases and the model colorblindness mutation are considered same if both have the same pattern of inheritance.
