Explanation: because carry out all the functions in the human body necessary for living. Proteins make up hormones that are required for living. Insulin - responsible for stabilising blood sugar. Haemoglobin - responsible for carrying oxygen around the body. Melatonin - responsible for helping us get to sleep. Adrenalin - responsible for the flight-fight-freeze response. There are many more but here are just a few.

Answer:

Protein is a nutrient your body needs to grow, as well as to support and maintain your life. ... For example, proteins help cells develop and communicate, act as enzymes and hormones, conduct the transport of nutrients throughout your bloodstream and repair damaged tissue. In other words, you can't live without protein.

Human cells have 46 chromosomes. Each chromosome consists of a pair of identical chromatids attached together by a structure cal
nevsk [136]

Answer:

The answer is 46 chromosomes.

Before mitosis, cell duplicates its DNA material so there are 46 chromosomes in duplicates and in total there are 46 x 2 = 92 sister chromatids. During mitosis, sister chromatids first join in the middle of the cell and then separate towards the opposite sides of the cell. After they separate, there are 46 sister chromatids on the one side and 46 sister chromatids on the other side. Each sister chromatid at the end of cytokinesis actually represents the chromosome of the newly formed daughter cell.

Above 380C and below OoC the rate of photosynthesis decreases. Propose a hypothesis to explain why this occurs.
Effectus [21]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Enzyme activity decrease at these temperatures. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Photosynthesis is facilitated by the action of various enzymes and involves light and dark reactions.  In <em>light reactions chlorophyll absorbs sunlight and creates ATP AND NADPH</em>. In dark reactions carbon is fixed using the <em>ATP and NADPH. </em>

The efficiency of all these activities depends on the activity of enzymes which depends on the temperature. The optimum temperature range where the enzyme activity is optimal is about <em>10°c - 20°c</em>. At low temperatures and high temperatures enzyme activity is less efficient.

<em>At a temperature above 38°c and below  0°c enzyme activity decreases. </em>
