Answer:
- They allow for more collisions of molecules (enzymes + substrates)
- They lower the amount of activation energy needed to complete the reaction.
- They speed up chemical reactions to form more products
Explanation:
Enzymes are proteinous molecules that serves as catalyst in living systems. Like every other catalyst, enzymes function to SPEED UP the rate of biochemical reactions by LOWERING/REDUCING the activation energy, which is the energy required for a reactant to form product (completion of reaction).
Enzymes like other catalysts causes faster movement of molecules in the reaction i.e. they allow for more collisions of molecules (enzymes + substrates). This causes the rate of reaction to increase and hence, speeden the reaction.
A population that has been isolated, especially a smaller one, could have a high level of homozygosity and therefore not a lot of genetic variation. Gene flow between such populations can increase the level of heterozygosity, and therefore up genetic variation.
Answer:
Index Fossils
Explanation:
Index fossils are used by scientists to help them figure out the dating of discovered fossils or the correlation. They are also very known to appear in a (very) certain/specific age range.
