Answer:

A. It decreases the activation energy needed to start the reaction.

Explanation:

Catalase is an enzyme found in the cells of organisms exposed to aerobic conditions. It is an enzyme that catalyses the breakdown or decomposition of hydrogen peroxide in the liver to water (H2O) and oxygen (O2).

Catalase, like every other enzyme, operates by binding to the substrate, which in this case is hydrogen peroxide. Catalase then REDUCES or LOWERS the ACTIVATION ENERGY needed to start the reaction.

Mutations in DNA include deletions and insertions. These types of mutations:
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

(A). Result in different amino acids to be read due to frame shifts

Explanation:

Insertion or deletion mutations (or Indel mutations) can be defined as mutations in DNA due to insertion (addition) or deletion of nucleotide bases in DNA.  

These mutations lead to change in reading frames (sequence of codons), which leads to formation of protein having completely different amino acid sequence. Hence, these mutations are also cause frameshift mutations.

This is due due to triplet nature of genetic codes as insertion or deletion of one or more bases (but not three) would change change in codon sequence and mutated sequence can form a non-functional or truncated protein.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).
