Answer: Kids get their traits genetically from their parents. Their parents pass down genes that give their kids similar traits to their parents. Depending on which genes are dominant in the family, the kid will inherit those traits.

What environmental factor does the pyramid of energy incorporate that prevents it from inverting? a. population size b. species
svetoff [14.1K]

The correct answer is (C) biomass at each trophic level

Pyramid of energy is a graphic representation of amount of energy trapped per unit time and area in different trophic levels of a food chain with producers forming the base and top carnivores the tip. As the biomass of producers are always greater than the carnivores, the pyramid of energy can't be inverted.

Feliz [49]

Answer:

-During citric acid cycle or Krebs cycle, radioactive carbon will be first appear in citric acid

Explanation:

During cellular respiration, glucose is first converted into pyruvate molecules by the process of glycolysis. These pyruvate molecules go for oxidative decarboxylation, during which acetyl co-enzyme A (acetyl CoA) is formed along with removal of carbon dioxide.

The acetyl co-enzyme enters to the next step in cellular respiration or citric acid cycle or Krebs cycle. The first step of citric acid cycle is formation of citric acid by joining of acetyl CoA and oxaloacetate.

As citric acid is first molecule formed during citric acid cycle, radioactive carbon would be first appear in citric acid.

A (n) inhibitor has a structure that is so similar to the substrate that it can bond to the enzyme just like the substrate. 2. a
Studentka2010 [4]
The answers are as follows:
1. <span>An inhibitor has a structure that is so similar to the substrate that it can bond to the enzyme just like the substrate: t</span>his is called competitive inhibitor. A competitive inhibitor will compete with the substrate for the active site of the enzyme and bind to the active site, thus incapacitating the substrate from binding to the active site.
2.  An inhibitor binds to a site on the enzyme that is not the active site: this is called non competitive inhibitors. Non competitive inhibitors bind to other site in the enzyme which is not the active site of the enzyme. The binding of the inhibitor changes the conformation of the enzyme as well as the active site, thus making it impossible for the substrate to bind to the enzyme effectively.
3. <span>usually, a(n) inhibitor forms a covalent bond with an amino acid side group within the active site, which prevents the substrate from entering the active site or prevents catalytic activity: this is called irreversible or permanent inhibition. Permanent inhibitors form covalent bonds with the enzyme and prevent substrate from binding to the enzyme.
4. T</span><span>he competitive inhibitor competes with the substrate for the ACTIVE SITE on the enzyme: The active site of an enzyme is the place where the substrate normally bind in order to activate a enzyme. Competitive inhibitors are those inhibitors that compete with the substrate for the active site of the enzyme and prevent the substrate from binding there.
5. W</span><span>hen the noncompetitive inhibitor is bonded to the enzyme, the shape of the ENZYME is distorted. The non competitive inhibitors are those inhibitors that bind to other places in the enzyme instead of the active site. The binding of the non competitive inhibitor usually distort the shape and the conformation of the enzyme thus preventing the substrate from binding to it effectively.
6. E</span><span>nzyme inhibitors disrupt normal interactions between an enzyme and its SUBSTRATE. The principal function of enzyme inhibitor is to prevent the substrate from binding to the appropriate enzyme. This is usually done in the human system in order to regulate the activities of enzymes.</span>
