Answer: The correct option is (the region of an enzyme that attaches to a substrate).
Explanation:
The anabolic and catabolic processes in a cell are directed and regulated by enzymes. An enzyme has the ability to speed up a metabolic reaction by lowering the amount of energy needed to start the reaction. Without enzymes, these processes would be extremely slow. They also arrange the reacting molecules in a manner that will cause the chemical change to take place rapidly. It does so through the following steps:
--> molecules of substrate combine with the enzyme at its active site.
--> the substrate molecules combine with enzyme molecules for a short time, forming an enzyme-substrate complex.
--> New substance ( product) is formed which leaves the active site of the enzyme thereby making it free for another reaction to take place.
In conclusion, the ACTIVE SITE of an enzyme is the region of an enzyme that attaches to a substrate allowing chemical reaction to take place.
In marine environment, many animals confuse the plastic littering the oceans for food including sea turtles. Once in these animal bodies the plastic accumulates, and the chemicals can cause excess estrogen to be produced, which has led to discoveries of male fish with female sex organs. For sea turtles, the plastic blocks their digestive tract and the food that is trapped releases gases that render them buoyant, and unable to dive for food. The turtle was slowly starving because a single use plastic bag, which she had eaten, was blocking her digestive tract.
The plastic contains destructible and harmful agents that is not good for human and animals health.
Answer:
The correct answer will be option-B.
Explanation:
The patellar tendon reflex is the kicking movement of the lower leg in response to the tap on patellar cap used to test the L2, L3, and L4 segments of the spinal cord in the body.
The spinal cord interacts with muscles through muscle sensors called muscle spindle which signals after the stretching of the muscle. The signals are sent to the spinal cord through afferent neurons or sensory neurons which starts the reflex action to prevent overstretching of the muscle.
Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.
They will likely be wiped out as well, since if the fungus can wipe out some of the Cavendish bananas, they will be likely to be able to wipe out the rest since they all share the same genes. Since they all share the same genes they will have the same weaknesses the fungus can exploit
