What reaction does catalase, an enzyme, catalyze, its substrate? Why is this reaction important?

Biology
1 answer:
DedPeter [7]2 years ago
5 0

Answer: When the enzyme catalase comes into contact with its substrate, hydrogen peroxide, it starts breaking it down into water and oxygen. Oxygen is a gas and therefore wants to escape the liquid.

Explanation: Catalase is one of the most important antioxidant enzymes. As it decomposes hydrogen peroxide to innocuous products such as water and oxygen, catalase is used against numerous oxidative stress-related diseases as a therapeutic agent.

a man with blood group A marries a woman with blood group O and their daughter has blood group O. Is this information enough to
Nonamiya [84]
This information is not enough to tell which of the traits-blood group A or O is dominant.
It is known that blood groups A and B are codominant, which means both will express if found together in a heterozygote. However, blood group O is recessive. But from this information, you can conclude that blood group O is dominant. Why is that so?
Let's imagine that father's genotype is AA and mothers' genotype OO and cross them:
Parents:               AA    x    OO
Offspring:      AO    AO   AO    AO
Since we have information that daughter has blood group O, we can conclude that O is dominant over A and mask it. This is not true! In this case, the daughter will have blood group A.

Mother's genotype surely is OO (because O allele is recessive, so to express a recessive trait both alleles must be recessive). But, the father cannot be AA, because it must give O allele to the daughter so she can have genotype OO and blood group O. So, the father's genotype is AO.  Let's take a look at that crossing:
Parents:         AO   x    OO
Offspring:   AO   AO   OO   OO
Thus, in this case, daughter can have genotype OO and blood group O.

A glacier recedes and exposes bare rock. Which of the following will most likely occur next? A. The bare rock will quickly break
agasfer [191]

Answer:

correct option is A.

Succession is the process by which the structure of a particular community evolves over a specific period of time. There are two types of succession, primary and secondary succession. Primary succession is a type of succession that occurs in a place which is incapable of sustaining the growth of plants, that is, it usually occur on barren lands. All the options given above are examples of places for primary succession with the exception of option A.

the genes stc1 and stc2, which share a common ancestor, are found in both zebrafish and humans. all four stc genes display simil
Temka [501]

Based on these facts, we can state that the genes of the two organisms had a eukaryotic origin.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Despite having exons, prokaryotes do not have introns in their genomes.
  • This means that if two organisms have the same sequence of introns and exons, they have a common ancestor, in addition to having their genes originated in a eukaryotic organism, which explains the sequence of introns.

This means that the genetic expression of these two organisms has similarities, even if they are organisms with different biological processes.
