If the activation energy required for a chemical reaction were reduced, what would happen to the rate of the reaction? The rate
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

The rate would increase.

Explanation:

Activation energy is the energy needed for a chemical reaction to start while the rate of reaction is how a reactant turns into the product. Catalysts are used to speeden up the rate of a chemical reaction.

The catalyst do this by lowering the activation energy needed for the reaction to occur, leading to the increase in the rate at which the same reaction occurs. It should be noted that a catalyst is not a reactant, neither does it get used up in the chemical reaction. It just provides an alternative energy pathway with a reduced activation energy, hereby, helping the reaction to proceed faster than it would without the catalyst.

What is the amino acid sequence of the polypeptide produced by the “normal” DNA sequence in Model 1?
ruslelena [56]

The sequence of amino acid in polypeptide is dictated by the codons in the messenger RNA molecules from which polypeptide was translated. The sequence of codons in the mRNA was in turn dictated by the sequence of codons in the DNA from which the mRNA was transcribed. The amino acids are linked covalently by peptide bonds.

How does the body protect itself from the majority of pathogens it encounters?
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

In general, your body fights disease by keeping things out of your body that are foreign. Your primary defense against pathogenic germs are physical barriers like your skin. You also produce pathogen-destroying chemicals, like lysozyme, found on parts of your body without skin, including your tears and mucus membranes. In response to infection, your immune system springs into action. White blood cells, antibodies, and other mechanisms go to work to rid your body of the foreign invader. The immune system has a vital role: It protects your body from harmful substances, germs and cell changes that could make you ill. It is made up of various organs, cells and proteins.

Once infected cells have sensed an invading pathogen, they secrete molecules called cytokines and chemokines. These cells are then primed to resist an infection with the invading virus. Cytokines such as interferons activate anti-viral genes in the infected and neighbouring cells.

Microorganisms capable of causing disease—or pathogens—usually enter our bodies through the eyes, mouth, nose, or urogenital openings, or through wounds or bites that breach the skin barrier. Organisms can spread, or be transmitted, by several routes.

The second line of defense is nonspecific resistance that destroys invaders in a generalized way without targeting specific individuals: Phagocytic cells ingest and destroy all microbes that pass into body tissues. For example macrophages are cells derived from monocytes (a type of white blood cell).

If pathogens do manage to enter the body, the body's second line of defense attacks them. The second line of defense includes inflammation, phagocytosis, and fever.
