Answer:

To determine the effect of toxin binding, you perform a Competitive Binding Experiment

Explanation:

Competitive binding experiments are very relevant when matters relating to cellular and or molecular toxicity are concerned.

They are used to determine the binding of a single concentration of labeled ligand in the presence of various concentrations of unlabeled ligand.

They are important because:

1. Validate a direct binding assay

2. Confirm whether or not a drug binds to the receptor

3. determine and explore how low-affinity drugs and receptors interact and it's resultant effects

To prevent this, farmers use some methods.

One is the usage of heaters, not allowing the freeze to set.

Another one is to spray the crop with water before the predicted overnight freeze. When water freezes and turns into ice, it releases latent heat. Then, the ice that builds upon the plant will insulate it from the colder surrounding air temperatures.
