The human body maintains a temperature of around 98.6 degrees at all times. enzymes are involved in almost every chemical reaction in the body. which of the following describes the connection between these two statements? a. enzymes function best at a specific temperature. b. the body needs to be warm to prevent hypothermia. c. the body is kept relatively warm to prevent too much enzyme action. d. there is no connection between the two statements.

Which enzymes break down carbohydrates?

How do high-energy electrons from glycolysis and the krebs cycle contribute to the formation of atp from adp in the electron transport chain? a. high-energy electrons interact with pyruvic acid to create a phosphate bond with adp, forming atp. b. high-energy electrons supply the needed energy to synthesize atp from the lower-energy adp in the electron transport chain. c. high-energy electrons supply a negative charge which causes the citric acid to oxidize, forming a phosphate group to bond with adp. d. high-energy electrons increase the temperature of adp so it easily reacts to form atp.

Transposon can cause mutations in genes at or near the site of transposon insertion. it is possible for these elements to transpose away from their original site, causing a reversion of the mutant phenotype. in some cases, however, even more severe phenotypes appear when these elements excise from this site, due to events at or near the mutant allele. what might be happening to the transposon or the nearby gene to create more severe mutations?
