Answer:

population of hawks

The population of the ground squirrels will be limited by the population of the hawks. The population of the hawks, thus, will be a limiting factor for the population of the ground squirrels. The Hawks are the birds of prey that feeds on squirrels. With the increased number of hawks in the same area as them will put these squirrels in danger. The population of the tree squirrels, however, will have no affect on the population of the ground squirrels. The genetic variability and breeding season are not limiting factors for their population either.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option B - a population of hawks'.

Neporo4naja [7]

Of the steps included in the scientific method, Shameka is performing step five, which is to<u> test your hypothesis by performing an experiment</u>.

The scientific method is the globally accepted process by which to make scientific claims. This method includes seven steps which are:

  1. Ask a question
  2. Do research
  3. Create a hypothesis
  4. Design an experiment to test the hypothesis
  5. Perform the experiment
  6. Study the results and make a conclusion
  7. Communicate the results to your peers.

The question states that Shameka is <u>gathering samples from nearby water sources</u>, therefore she is in the process of testing her hypothesis through experimentation, which corresponds to step 5 of the scientific design.

Which curve shows the course of the reaction in the presence of an enzyme--the black curve or the red curve? Which line represen
nikklg [1K]
I found the attached image on the internet and it really helps complete this exercise.

First question:
In the presence of an enzyme, the course of the reaction is shown by the red curve. The necessary energy to make a reaction occur is less when there is an enzyme to help the reaction happen. Enzymes work as catalysts that act over substrates converting them into different molecules in a much accelerated way then it would happen without the enzyme's help, if it would happen at all.

Second question:
The activation energy is represented by line B. The activation energy is the energy needed to be available for a reaction to happen. If we compare it with line A, which represents the activation energy necessary for a reaction without an enzyme, we can see how much less energy is necessary to dispend when an enzyme is part of the reaction. Line C represents the energy resultant from the reaction.

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

2) is chemically specific

Explanation:

Enzymes are organic catalysts which speed up or control chemical reactions in cells. Enzymes are specific in the reactions they catalyze. An enzyme will only catalyze one specific reaction or a group of closely related reaction. Enzyme salivary amylase found in the mouth only hydrolyses starch into maltose.
