Answer:

a.) Hydrogen peroxide are highly reactive oxygen compounds used as an antiseptic

b.) Used in treating punctured wounds due to the nature of the wound which helps microorganisms to thrive.

c.) Fizzing associated with hydrogen peroxide use is due to presence of the enzyme catalase.

Explanation:

Hydrogen peroxide is a chemical compound which is made up of two hydrogen atoms and two oxygen atoms. It is powerful oxidizing agent which takes part in biological reactions. This is possible as it can remove electrons from other biological molecules which can damage other cellular components. It is used an an antiseptic to reduce infection because, being a powerful oxidizing agent, it has the ability to react with cell wall of these microorganisms through removal of electrons thereby causing damage to it.

Punctured wounds are narrow in structure which allows obligate anaerobic organisms to thrive because of reduced oxygen flow in the wound. Hydrogen peroxide can effectively eliminate these organisms which are most likely to cause infection in that site because they lack the enzyme called catalase.

Catalase is an enzyme which is present in living cells except obligate anaerobic organisms. It converts hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. The fizzing noticed by Jill while cleaning the wound with hydrogen peroxide is due to the catalase in Jill's own cells which converts the hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen. When oxygen is given off, fizzing reactions are seen at the surface of the wound.

After Gerry mows his lawn, he often puts the grass clippings into his flower garden. How will this affect his garden?
wel

The correct answer is option D, that is, it will increase the amount of carbon in the soil and increase the amount of carbon dioxide discharged by decomposers.  

One of the ways to manage the garden is to utilize mulch, the mulch minimizes the contact between the soil and the organic matter so that the species will consume more time to dissociate it. The mulch will decompose and its nutrients will be discharged to the soil, however, it takes place very gradually, and enhances the organic matter in the soil.  

If the mulch is left in the garden for a year, then the soil will be conserved and supplied with nutrients and this process will retain carbon in that garden. The sources of mulch can be leaves, grass, straw, or composted garden waste.
