Enzymes are biological molecules which serve as catalysts for various reactions in the body.

Enzymes are known to catalyze various biochemical processes in the body and are indispensable in the body. The untrue statement about enzymes is that all enzymes have the same shape. Since enzymes are specific and they work in a lock and key model. Each enzyme has a unique shape that suits its substrate.

Each enzyme binds to an active site. The active site refers to the part of the body where the enzyme discharges its function as shown in the figure.

Since an enzyme does not participate in a chemical reaction, the enzyme will remain unchanged at the end of the reaction. Enzymes are proteins, this is the group of biological molecules to which they belong.

A scientist is studying fruit fly wings. Straight wings are dominant, and curly wings are recessive. Which statement correctly d

svetoff [14.1K]

The offspring will have one allele for straight wings and one allele for curly wings.

Explanation:

Let W be straight wings (big letter for dominant allele)
Let w be curly wings (small letter for recessive allele)

Each fly has two alleles.
If a parent is true breeding, it only has one type of allele.
Parent 1 = WW (straight wings)
Parent 2 = ww (curly wings)

Cross the parents: WW x ww in a Punnett square (see photo below)
This is the F1 generation (generation produced by crossing the first parents).
There are only Ww offspring.

Therefore,
The offspring will have one allele for straight wings and one allele for curly wings.
