5)High initial costs for material and installation and long ROI (however, with the reduction in the cost of solar over the last 10 years, solar is becoming more cost feasible every day) Needs lots of space as efficiency is not 100% yet. No solar power at night so there is a need for a large battery bank.

6)Asphalt, also known as bitumen is a sticky, black, highly viscous liquid or semi-solid form of petroleum. It may be found in natural deposits or it may not.

Answer: see explanation

Explanation:

A. substrate

B. Active site

C. Enzyme binds with substrate

D. Active site of enzyme

E. Products leaving active site

Simplified enzymatic reaction. The substrate reversibly binds to the active site of the enzyme, forming the enzyme-substrate (ES) complex. The bound substrate is converted to product by catalytic groups in the active site, forming the enzyme-product complex (EP). The bound products are released, returning the enzyme to its unbound form, ready to catalyze another round of converting substrate to product.

Why is cell divison important for both unicellular and multicellular organisms​
vagabundo [1.1K]

Cell division allows for the growing of new cells. With a unicellular organism, cell division would be the cell's way of reproducing or multiplying, in other words, surviving. Within a multicellular organism, cell division is the organism's way of replacing old, damaged, or dead cells. Within multicellular organisms, cell division also aids in growth.
