Hydrogen peroxide naturally breaks down into oxygen and water over time. When exposed to the enzyme catalase, hydrogen peroxide

is rapidly converted into oxygen and water.
What feature of catalase most likely is responsible for the change in the rate of conversion of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen?

A, Catalase speeds up the conversion of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen by decreasing the reaction's activation energy.

B, Catalase bonds permanently with the reactants causing hydrogen peroxide to rapidly break down by increasing the activation energy.

C ,Catalase has a flexible structure that allows it to bind and convert any small hydrogen containing compound into water and oxygen.

D, Catalase remains intact, so small amounts of it convert large amounts of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen immediately.

Answer: A. Catalase speeds up the conversion of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen by decreasing the reaction's activation energy.

Explanation: Catalase in an enzyme. Enzymes lower the energy required to push a reaction foward (activation energy) but are kept intact and are not a part of the final products.

Answer:

Catalase is an enzyme in the liver that breaks down harmful hydrogen peroxide into oxygen and water. When this reaction occurs, oxygen gas bubbles escape and create foam. Completely disinfect any surface that the raw liver touches during this activit.

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Another name for folic acid is folacin and this is required for cells to produce a metabolite caled formate which is involved in the synthesis of nucleotides. The enzyme involved in its absorption/conversion is dihydrofolate synthetase and not folacin.

Movement of the chromosomes during anaphase would be most affected by a drug that
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

The options are missing, the options are:

A) prevents the duplication of centrosomes. B) prevents nuclear envelope fragmentation C) prevents shortening of microtubules. D) prevents attachment of the microtubules to the kinetochore. E) prevents nucleosome formation

The answer is C

Explanation:

Cell division is a characteristics of all living cells. Whether meiosis or mitosis, the chromosomes separate in the Anaphase stage. Prior to the anaphase stage is the metaphase, where spindle microtubules attach to the kinetochores of each chromosome and aligns them at the centre of the cell called METAPHASE PLATE.

Thus, since the aligning of chromosomes at the metaphase plate has to do with attachment of microtubules to chromosomes' kinetochores, the drug that will hinder movement of chromosomes to opposite poles will not stop formation of microtubules. Instead, it will prevent the formed microtubules attached to each chromosome from shortening, as it is the shortening of microtubules that facilitates the pulling apart of the chromosomes they are attached to.

What is human interleukin 2?
stira [4]

Answer:

interleukin-2 (IL-2) is an interleukin, a type of cytokine signaling molecule in the immune system. It is a 15.5–16 kDa protein[5] that regulates the activities of white blood cells (leukocytes, often lymphocytes) that are responsible for immunity. IL-2 is part of the body's natural response to microbial infection, and in discriminating between foreign ("non-self") and "self". IL-2 mediates its effects by binding to IL-2 receptors, which are expressed by lymphocytes. The major sources of IL-2 are activated CD4+ T cells and activated CD8+ T cells
