The correct answer is Metal.

Sound waves are vibrations which need medium to propagate. Higher the density of medium, the sound travels fastest. Sound travels fastest in solid than liquid and gas. Therefore, in this question sound will travel faster in metal because metal has higher density than air and water and it will not travel in vacuum as sound needs medium to travel.

The correct answer would be metal because of the higher density of the medium

Pepsin is an enzyme found in the human stomach that breaks down protein. Pepsin will not break down starch.

Andre45 [30]

The statement which best explains why Pepsin will not break down starch is that enzymes only work for specific substrates.

<h3>What is an Enzyme?</h3>

This is referred to as a biological catalyst which helps to speed the rate of chemical reaction in the body by lowering the activation energy needed to start it up. it is also proteinous and can be denatured by heat and other substance such as chemicals.

They are also substrate specific which means they can't act on any type of substance. For example enzyme such as amylase acts on only starch while pepsin acts on only protein.

Effector molecule binding changes the behavior of enzymes by altering the equilibrium between the tense (T) state and the relaxe

9966 [12]

Answer:

Explanation:

<h2>Homotropic effector-</h2>

$\text{accounts for the sigmoidal nature of a velocity versus substrate concentration curve}$
$\text{An enzyme's substrate.}$

$\text{Works by altering T/R ratio.}$

The phrase $\text{"accounts for the sigmoidal nature of a velocity versus }$

is relevant and can be applied for homotropic effector molecules since the heterotropic effector molecules have the possibility and affinity to change the sigmoidal curve to a more potential hyperbolic curve contingent upon the allosteric effector to be positive or negative modulator.

The expression isn't relevant for both homotropic and heterotrophic effectors since the two of them can tie to the allosteric site of allosteric enzymatic compounds.

The phrase $\text{"works by altering the T/R ratio"}$ is significant and can be applied for both homotropic and heterotropic effectors.

The expression $\text{"an enzyme's substrate"}$ is significant and applied for homotropic effectors just as when substrate molecules tie to the allosteric site of enzyme then it is regarded as homotropic effectors. The heterotropic effectors are effectors apart from substrate molecules.

The phrase $\text{"alters the} \ K_m \ \text{ of an enzyme"}$ is not applied and insignificant to none of the heterotropic or homotropic effector molecules since $K_m$ is significant for the enzymes that obey the Michaelis-Menten equation, but allosteric enzymes do not obey the Michaelis-Menten equation. Homotropic and heterotropic effectors are viable and efficient for allosteric enzymatic chemicals that don't contain
