The answer is Heyyy friend in know because I took the test
Copper is a heavy metal that can harm many people. This process of heavy metals building in your body is called bioaccumulation and the process of this building in the food chain is called biomagnification. Its hard to rid of this heavy metal because it is very dense, therefore, cannot breakdown in our bodies. Heavy metals get consumed by producers and then reach to the top of the pyramid (us) so we have the highest risk of getting diseases and so on. Make sure you explain that heavy metals get passed from industrial purposes where companies do not dispose of waste properly.

Good luck!
Answer:
- What is the AGⓇ of this reaction? 0.
- Which will be favoured - the forward reaction, the reverse reaction, or neither? Neither.
- What effect does the presence of the enzyme aspartate transaminase have on the Key value when compared with its value in the absence of enzyme? It does not affect the value of Keq.
- If one of the products of reaction 1, oxaloacetate, is removed by converting it to citrate as follows: Reaction 2: oxaloacetate + acetyl-CoA citrate + COASH will the key for Reaction l be changed? No, the Keq does not change.
Explanation:
1. To calculate the delta G of a reaction given the K, we use the following equation:
ΔG°= -RT ln K.
Which gives us 0 when K is 1.
2.None of the reactions is favoured. Given that the K equals 1, the system will try to keep the concentration of both products and reagents the same.
3. A catalyst is a substance that, when added, provides a different and faster mechanism through which a reaction takes place. This only means that the speed at which the equilibrium is attained is reduced, but the enzyme does nothing to alter the difference in energy (ΔG°) of the start and end points of the reaction, which ultimately gives us the value of Keq.
4. The addition of a side reaction does not change the value of Keq for the main reaction. They are both separate ways of making oxaloacetate disappear. While the Keq does not change, keep in mind that the end concentrations will not be the same, for any set of starting concentrations of your substances.
It would help if I could see the specific answer choices, but an environment that would have lots of oxygen, water, decaying organisms and sunlight would be the answer (ex. the forest or riverbed)
