Answer:

The answer is a heme cofactor.

Explanation:

Peroxidase is an enzyme that catalyzes oxidation/reduction reaction by using hydrogen peroxide as a substrate.  

Donor+H2O2 ↔ Oxidized donor + H2O

Peroxidase active site can contain a heme cofactor that has an iron ion and a porphyrin molecule that acts as an electron donor to the hydrogen peroxide which is then reduced to water.

There are 6 molecules of O2.



"O2" is the formula for one molecule oxygen, which has 2 atoms.

The subscript (small) "2" tells you how many atoms are in the molecule.

The coefficient is the big number tells you the number of molecules.

In 6O2, there are 12 atoms in total (6 molecules of 2 atoms each).

The ________ is the site where lipids, triglycerides, and steroids are synthesized, as well as where calcium is stored within th
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

smooth endoplasmic reticulum

Explanation:

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum differs from the rough endoplasmic reticulum in not having ribosomes on its surface. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) extends from the rough ER and forms a network of membrane tubules. The function of the smooth ER is to serve as a site for the synthesis of lipids, fatty acids, and steroids such as estrogens and testosterone.

Enzymes for the synthesis of these diverse biomolecules are present in smooth ER. The smooth ER present in the muscle cells is called the sarcoplasmic reticulum. It stores the calcium ions which are released into the sarcoplasm of muscle cells during muscle contraction.

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

a. Independent Variable: throwing clothes (i.e., the bedroom)

b. Dependent Variable: how clean the floor is

c. Control Variable: throwing clothes into the air

Explanation:

The independent variable is a variable that isn't modified by the other variables measured in the experiment. Conversely, the dependent variable is the variable measured in the experiment which is 'dependent' on the independent variable. Finally, the control variable is a variable that is constant (i.e., unmodified) throughout the course of the experiment.
