Answer:

Heating an enzyme denatures the structure and reduces or turns off function!

Answer:

When heated too much, enzymes (since they are proteins dependent on their shape) become denatured. When the temperature drops, the enzyme regains its shape. ... Changes in pH will also denature the enzyme by changing the shape of the enzyme. Enzymes are also adapted to operate at a specific pH or pH range.

Which of the following characteristics is typical of the lytic cycle of a bacteriophage? A) Viral DNA is incorporated into the h
ExtremeBDS [4]

The correct answer is: C) A large number of phages are released at a time

Lytic cycle of a bacteriophage is one of the two life cycles of viruses, other being lysogenic. Lytic cycle can be divided in stages:

• Attachment-viruses binds to the receptor on the surface of bacterial cell, usually it uses tail for the attachment

• Entrance-virus injects its genome material (DNA or RNA) into bacteria cell

• Replication and protein synthesis-virus uses mechanism of bacteria to replicate its genome and produce proteins. As a consequence, a huge number of new viruses are formed

• Lysis- viruses express protein for the bacterial lysis (bacterial cell expand and burst) and  hundreds of new phages are released.
