Answer:  C. At a pH of 8, the enzyme starts to denature and changes shape.

Explanation: The activity of the enzyme increases as the pH increases from 0 to 7 i.e in acidic medium but as the pH reaches 8, the enzyme activity starts decreasing which means the enzyme is not able to function properly.

The enzyme is made up of proteins which is composed of chain of amino acids. Thus in basic pH i.e pH above 8, the bonds of the amino acids break and the enzyme is said to get denatured as the shape of enzyme has changed.

The amount of energy available to each successive level on a food<br> chain/pyramid?
Feliz [49]

Answer:

The ten percent law states that the total energy content of a trophic level in an ecosystem is only about one-tenth (or 10%) that of the preceding level. The trophic levels of any ecosystem can be arranged in a pyramid shape to show the amount of energy available to support one trophic level to the next.

Answer:

Patrick's hypothesis was "If fish eat microwaved food, then they will swim faster through the maze."

The fish that are in the control group are the fish without microwaved food.

The independent variable is the microwaved food.

The dependent variable was the time it took for the fish to swim through the maze.

Patrick's conclusion should be that the special food did not seem to make a large difference in helping the fish become faster, since 8 out of 10 fish were faster in both special food and regular food groups.

Glucose provides energy for cells. Different cells have different mechanisms for glucose intake. Intestinal cells contain protei
Softa [21]

The answer is; active transport in small intestines and passive transport in blood cells

In passive transport, no energy is required to transport the glucose molecules because they spon6tanosuely move down their concenntrati0n gradient. The transport protein in the blood cell membrane only enables the molecule to pass across the hydrophobic layer of lipid in the membrane and into the cell.

In active transport, energy is required in the transportation of glucose against their concentration gradient (glucose is highly concentrated in the lumen of the intestines than in the bloodstream). Sodium/Potassium (Na+/K+) pumps play a significant role in the transport of glucose. When sodium diffuses back into the cells, they drag along glucose molecules  with them across the sodium-glucose transporter protein.
