Answer:
Explanation:
A protease is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of the peptide bonds that tie polypeptide chains together, releasing individual amino acid subunits. The L and D nomenclature for amino acids defines the structure of the glyceraldehyde isomer through which the amino acid can be produced.
SEE BELOW FOR THE APPROPRIATE STRUCTURES.
We need to figure out why swine proteases hydrolyze L-amino acids but not D-amino acids in any way. we know that enzymatic catalysts act as polypeptides if you can recall. They must retain a very precise three-dimensional structure for a catalytic activity to occur. Substrates that do not quite match the required configuration at the active site will not be reacted to — this is a "lock and key" style.
The present exercise may be explained by the fact that the configuration and structure of D-amino acids prevent them from binding properly to the active site of the protease enzyme. Perhaps they're pointed in the wrong direction, or perhaps there happens to be missing electrical interaction that's needed to keep the substrate in position.
Nonetheless, L-amino acids, on the other hand, seem to have the right configurational aspects in the active site and are hydrolyzed.

Answer:
In quiet breathing inspiration involves muscular contractions and expiration is passive.
Explanation:
Respiration process involves two different stages, inspiration - inhalation- and expiration - exhalation-.
During inspiration, the diaphragm <u>contracts</u> and goes down, while intercostal muscles also <u>contract</u> and go up. These actions enhance the size of the thoracic box and <u>reduce internal pressure</u>. As a result, air flows in and fills the lungs.
During expiration, the <u>diaphragm relaxes</u> and the volume of the thoracic box diminishes, which causes the <u>pressure inside to increase</u>. In consequence, the lungs contract and the air is expulsed outside.
Answer:
C) They are compressed during inhalation.
Explanation:
Birds breathe through rigid lungs that are located in the animal's thoracic region. The trachea of birds divides into bronchi that branch inside the lungs into very thin tubes called parabronchials or parabroncholes, which are irrigated by blood capillaries that allow gas exchange.
In birds there are no pulmonary alveoli (as in mammals), but air capillaries that depart from the parabroncholes. Oxygen gas passes from these capillaries to the blood capillaries, thus causing gas exchange.
In the lower portion of the bird's trachea, before branching the bronchi, we can find the syringe, a bag-like structure that has vocal cords responsible for the birds' scream and song. Most of the time, the sound emitted by birds serves to attract the mate, mark territory and prevent birds of the same species against some predator or other danger.
Answer:
absorption of oxygen
Explanation:
the others would not make sense so i think this is the answer
