Digestive enzymes are protein molecules that speed up digestion by catalyzing chemical reactions. These molecules would bring specific molecules together and create an environment that is favorable for the occurrence of a chemical reaction. Typically, it usually breakdown fats, proteins and carbs. These enzymes are found in digestive tracts of humans and animals and also in traps of plants that are carnivorous. There are a number of enzymes that are present in the body which functions specifically. Examples are proteases which are responsible of breaking proteins, lipases which split fat, nucleases which split nucleic acids and amylases which breakdown carbohydrates.

There are 3 parts of cell theory: all living things are made up of cells, all cells come from pre existing cells, and the cell is the basic unit of life. S<em>ince Schleiden and Schwann’s experiments proved that certain tissues were made up of cells (and those tissues are from living organisms), it most closely relates to the part that all living things are made up of cells.

Did all of the molecules diffuse out of the bag into the beaker? why or why not?
Cloud [144]
In the above question, if the bag refers to a dialysis bag, the membrane of a dialysis bag is a selectively permeable membrane that does not allow the movement of all molecules to diffuse across the ,membrane. Osmosis is best explained with the help of a dialysis bag. In the process of osmosis the movement of water molecules from their higher concentration to lower concentration take place across the membrane.
Thus, only water molecules will pass across the bag and limit the movement of other molecules.

Even though New Zealand has a smaller population than Australia, it has a greater population density because it covers a much smaller area. Australia’s population is approximately five times larger than New Zealand’s while the area Australia covers is approximately 30 times larger than the area New Zealand covers.

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Imagine that you are a doctor in maternity ward. During your last shift, 20 babies were born. 10 had blue eyes, and 10 had brown eyes. Remember genotypes are the two alleles given for each trait written with a letter . For this activity 8 - brown eyes b=blue eyes. Phenotypes are the physical appearance of the trait. Given the phenotypes, what are the possible genotypes for these babies? The possible genotypes of these babies are Bb, Bb, bb, bb

Explanation:

Bb= Brown eyes babies

bb= blue eyes babies

from the above analogy, it is crystal clear that the babies are of equal genotypic number which reflects 10:10
