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.
Answer:
Rubella
Explanation:
Rubella is a viral disease caused by the infection of Rubella virus. Some signs and symptoms of this disease are as follows -
- A rash which begins on face and later spreads all over the body
- Low fever
- Swollen glands
- Aching joints
- Joint pain
As in the question, the doctor found rash on the body of patient, it was diagonised as Rubella, so the doctor was worried because it can affect the development of her child.
Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
Let the disorder be represented by the allele a.
Since the disease is an autosomal recessive one, affected individuals will have the genotype aa and normal individuals will have the genotype Aa or AA.
Since the four adults are carriers, their genotypes would be Aa.
Aa x Aa
Progeny: AA 2Aa aa
Probability of being affected = 1/4
Probability of being a carrier = 1/2
Probability of not being affected = 3/4
(a) The chance that the child second child of Mary and Frank will have alkaptonuria = 1/2
(b) The chance that the third child of Sara and James will be free of the condition = 3/4
(c)
(d) If someone has no family history of the disorder, their genotype would be AA.
AA x aa
4 Aa
<em>The chance that a child with alkaptonuria will have an offspring with alkaptonuria if the child's mate has no family history </em>= 0
(e)
(f) <em>The chance that a child with alkaptonuria will have an offspring with alkaptonuria if the child's mate has no family history</em> = 0
