Explanation:

Since the student created a closed ecosystem, therefore, the system will have lack of oxygen for any living organism.

Therefore, when snails are placed into it then due to non-availability of sufficient amount of oxygen the snails died.

Whereas effect of closed system on plants cannot be observed as plants do not move from their place.

Thus, we can conclude that due to lack of oxygen snails die in the closed ecosystem.

They may have ran out of oxygen, or they may not have been water dwelling snails, as not all are, lack of food, no flow of water into and out of the tank would cause them to run out of oxygen.

How does a noncompetitive inhibitor decrease the rate of an enzyme reaction?
Wittaler [7]

Answer :B. By changing the shape of the enzyme's active site.

check the attachment

Explanation: This is a type of inhibition , in which a molecule binds to another part of the enzyme instead of the  active site.

On binding, it disrupts the  normal hydrogen bond and hydrophobic   interactions holding the enzyme molecule in its three dimensional shape, therefore distorting the conformation and   ACTIVE SITE of the  enzyme (changed it shape).

Since the active site is the precise location enzyme must bind with substrates for enzymatic reactions,this makes the enzyme not fit  for binding with the substrate, therefore  the efficiency  is reduced. No substrate-enzyme complex, and hence no substrate-product  complex for the release of  products, this brings down the turnover rate and eventually

<u>the rate of reaction of the enzyme</u>

Thus, the enzyme function is totally blocked, even in high concentration of the substrate,

These are signs of amniotic fluid embolism, a rare emergency that can occur during the very last stages of labour. This is caused by the circulation of amniotic fluid in the blood stream of the pregnant woman. The nurse should administer oxygen using a facemask, in order to increase the oxygen intake of the woman.
