Answer:

B

Explanation:

When humans dig-up fossil fuels and burn them to power the modern world, <u>carbon flows between the Geosphere/lithosphere and the atmosphere.</u>

Both the geosphere and the atmosphere represent important reservoirs of carbon. The digging-up of fossil fuels, otherwise known as exploration, is carried out in the geosphere or the lithosphere part of the earth. For example, crude oil is obtained deep from the ground. When the fuels are burned, they release carbon in the form of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

<em>Hence, it can be concluded that carbon flows from the geosphere/lithosphere part of the earth to the atmospheric portion of the earth when fossil fuels are burned.</em>

The correct option is B.

As part of their normal function, many proteins bind to DNA briefly and then release it again. Which types of interactions might
Harman [31]

Answer:

Non-covalent interactions.

Explanation:

DNA is present as genetic material in all the living organism except some viruses. DNA also perform important other functions - code for proteins, used as a source of energy.

The DA binds with protein to perform their functions. These proteins may acts as activator for DNA. The proteins binds in the non covalent interactions ( ionic bonding, hydrogen bonding, vanderwalls and hydrophobic interaction) so that proteins may easily detach from the proteins. These interactions helps in the attachment and easily detachment of proteins from DNA.

Thus, the correct answer is non-covalent interaction.

When testing the temperature of catalase, why did the enzyme catalase work best at 37°C? (Select all that apply.)
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

The correct answers are: B) Catalase works best at human body temperature, C) Normal human body temperature is 98.6°F, which equals 37°C.

Explanation:

Catalase is an enzyme found in our bodies that has the important task of <u>breaking down hydrogen peroxide</u>, a molecule that is very toxic. For catalase to work at its optimus speed, it need the body to have a temperature of 37° celsius -98.6°F-, which is what we normally call <em>human body temperature</em>. If the temperature rises or falls below body temperature, catalase will still work but at a much slower rate, until it stops working completely.

Not all enzymes work best at human body temperature, some enzymes reach their optimus state at higher or lower temperatures; but it is important to remember that enzymes are proteins, and proteins denaturalize when the temperature becomes to high, making them lose their shape and function.
