Answer:

Option C,  is a good insulator

Explanation:

See the attached image of the  underwear

Solution

As it is clear in the image, the fabric of the underwear is poly fabric which acts as a good insulator.  

Being an insulator, it can easily trap the heat of the body during winters and does not allow this heat to escape due to which it is successful in keeping a person warm during the winters.  

If the material of the underwear would have been a conductor, it would have allowed heat of the body to escape.

Hence, option C is correct

Which is the first step that geologists must do to compare rock layers at distant locations? 1.find the absolute age of rocks at
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

2.compare a layer at one location to layers at other locations

Explanation:

Comparing rock layers in distant places can be a challenge for geologists since these layers may have different environmental factors that caused different transformations in them.

Therefore, when it is necessary to establish a comparison between layers of rocks in different ligands, geologists must establish steps to make an efficient comparison and have results consistent with reality. To do this, they must first compare a layer in one location with layers in other locations, assign relative age to a layer in one location, and identify index fossils in one or more layers in one location.

According to catastrophists what was the rate of geological change?
givi [52]
Catastrophism is the theory that the Earth has largely been shaped by sudden, short-lived, violent events, possibly worldwide in scope.[1] This is in contrast to uniformitarianism (sometimes described as gradualism), in which slow incremental changes, such as erosion, created all the Earth's geological features. The proponents of uniformitarianism held that the present was the key to the past, and that all geological processes (such as erosion) throughout the past were like those that can be observed now. Since the early disputes, a more inclusive and integrated view of geologic events has developed, in which the scientific consensus accepts that there were some catastrophic events in the geologic past, but these were explicable as extreme examples of natural processes which can occur.

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>
