A population in which the frequency of alleles remains the same over generations is said to be in genetic equilibrium. Describe
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Natural selection disrupts the genetic equilibrium by favoring the genes for the traits that impart survival advantage to individuals.

Explanation:

Natural selection refers to the unequal survival rate of individuals of a population due to the presence of some beneficial adaptive genetic trait. These individuals are able to survive more and leave more progeny. Over generations, the population has increased number of these individuals leading to evolution of a population with different allele frequencies.  

For example, the frequency of gene for antibiotic resistance in the bacterial population was increased once humans started using antibiotics to control the bacterial population. This led to the evolution of the bacterial population with antibiotic resistance.

A type of lymphocyte called a(n) ________ detects cells with abnormal surface proteins and kills them.
kirill [66]

A type of lymphocyte called  NK cell detects cells with abnormal surface proteins and kills them.

<h3>What are lymphocytes?</h3>

One variety of white blood cell is the lymphocyte. They are crucial to the functioning of your immune system, which aids in the body's defense against sickness and infection. An extensive network of immune cells, lymph nodes, lymph tissue, and lymphatic organs makes up your immune system. Immune cells include lymphocytes. The two primary categories of lymphocytes are:

T lymphocytes (T cells): T cells direct your body's immune response and actively hunt down and destroy cancerous and infected cells.

B cells, or B lymphocytes: The B cell produces antibodies. Proteins called antibodies hunt down viruses, bacteria, and other foreign invaders.

Your body's immune system uses lymphocytes to combat cancer and invading viruses and germs (antigens). Your immune system benefits from lymphocytes' assistance in retaining every antigen it encounters. Some lymphocytes develop into memory cells after an encounter. Memory cells detect an antigen and reactbwhen they come into contact with it again. You don't contract illnesses like measles or chickenpox repeatedly because of this. Additionally, it explains why some diseases can be avoided through vaccination.

During a laboratory experiment, you discover that an enzyme-catalyzed reaction has a G of -20 kcal/mol. If you double the amount
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

-20 kcal/mol (It stays the same)

Explanation:

Enzymes will reduce the Gibbs free energy of activation, but will neither increase or decrease the free energy of reaction.

Enzymes means of activity is by decreasing the activation energy (Ea or ΔG✳) for a reaction. This in turn raises the reaction rate.

Free energy of reaction

= free energy of product - free energy of substrate

The free energy of the product remains constant even without the enzyme. Hence, the enzyme would show no effect on the free energy of the reaction.

The attached image shows the effect of changes in enzyme concentration on the free energy.
