Answer:

The label A corresponds to Convergent boundary zones  

Explanation:  

When two oceanic plates collide, it occurs oceanic convergence. The thicker and older plate subduces under the other plate, and at this point, it starts the volcanic activity. As the thicker plate descends, it is heated and melted and its materials are incorporated into the mantle. The fast subduction originates magma that ascends to the surface by crevices. This makes place to the formation of grouped <u>volcanic islands</u>, t<u>he island arches</u>. Subduction zones coincide with deep-sea <u>trenches</u> or depressions in the ocean bed. The volcanic islands are arranged in a circumference arch shape, which is bordered by a fossa. Most of these are located in the western Pacific, where the pacific crust is older and thicker, and hence it submerges easier in the mantle.

For the hydrolysis of ATP to ADP + Pi, the free-energy change is 7.3 kcal/mol under standard conditions (1 M concentration of bo
Anettt [7]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- the free energy change will be +13 kcal/mol.

Explanation:

The free energy change of a chemical reaction is the measure of the spontaneity of the reaction in which the negative value of free energy represents that reaction is exergonic while positive value represents that reaction is endergonic.

In the given question, if the free-energy change is 13 kcal/mol for the hydrolysis of ATP to ADP + Pi which releases energy used by the cells then reversal of the reaction that is the formation of ATP molecules from the ADP and Pi requires energy which will be the same energy required to break the ATP.

This shows that 13kcal/mol energy will be used but with a positive sign as the energy is needed or the reaction is endergonic.

Given are five km values for the binding of substrates to a particular enzyme. which has the strongest affinity when k–1 is grea
solmaris [256]

Answer;

- 1.2 nM

Explanation;

-Smallest Km means highest affinity, can bind substrate better at lower concentrations. The relationship between rate of reaction and concentration of substrate depends on the affinity of the enzyme for its substrate. This is usually expressed as the Km (Michaelis constant) of the enzyme, an inverse measure of affinity

-Km is therefore, the concentration of substrate which permits the enzyme to achieve half Vmax. An enzyme with a high Km has a low affinity for its substrate, and requires a greater concentration of substrate to achieve Vmax.

Veronika [31]

<span>Cocaine is an indirect agonist of dopamine <span>receptors which</span> means he </span>has no specific agonist activity at the dopamine receptor<span> but he enhances his activity. Cocaine</span> acts by binding to the dopamine transporter, blocking the removal of dopamine from the synapse and blocking termination of dopamine signalling. As a result, it increases the extracellular concentration of dopamine and therefore signal to the receiving neurons is amplified.
