Answer: c) Some organisms rely on energy captured from inorganic compounds to drive basic biological processes.
Explanation:
Deep-sea hydrothermal vents are hot spots of geothermal water. The organisms living in deep-sea vents cannot obtain energy from sunlight. They are dependent on chemosynthesis, which involves the utilization of inorganic substances to produce organic substances, which allows their survival and act as a source of energy. In the given situation, bacteria present on the surface of mussels are capable of chemosynthesis also the mussels are dependent upon inorganic hydrogen in seawater. Thus chemosynthesis supports the survival of organisms living in the deep sea vents.
They are composed of proteins. I cannot see the options but hopefully that answer is in one of them
Answer:
The correct option is C: antigen-binding sites
Explanation:
The antibody is shaped much like the letter Y in the English alphabet. It has two antigen binding sites that are identical in nature. The specificity of these sites is determined by the amino acid sequence that makes it up. Antibodies are complementary to these antigen binding sites, and the antibodies have an incredible ability to recognize a great variety of antigens.
Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
I’m going to guess the answer c
