Lactase is an enzyme that is produced in the lining of the intestines. this enzyme the body speed up the breakdown of carbohydrates that are found in dairy products, such as milk, yogurt, and cheese. which general function does lactase perform? fighting disease creating movement regulating cell processes sending chemical messages

the answer is regulating cell processes (c)

Regulating cell processes

Explanation:

The main function of lactase is the regulation of cellular processes. This is because it is possible for the cell to break down lactose (carbohydrate present in milk) into small molecules. Lactose is a complex molecule to be absorbed by the body. For this reason, it is necessary for lactase to promote its breakdown within a metabolic process within the cell.

If the body does not produce enough lactase, lactose will not be digested and will start a fermentation process that can cause stomach problems.

currents is the correct answer.

4.) metal

"-the movement of carbon from the nonliving environment into living things and back to the environment

-carbon is the essential component of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates (which make up all organisms)

-carbon exists in air, water, and living organisms

-producers convert carbon dioxide in the atmosphere into carbohydrates during photosynthesis

-bacteria in the atmosphere cycles through the system in filtration units

-in cellular respiration, carbon is released back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide

-some carbon is stored in limestone (forming one of the largest "carbon sinks" on earth)

-largest carbon reservoir on earth= limestone

-carbon stored in the bodies of organisms as fat, oils, or other molecules may be released into the soil or air when the organism dies

-this may form deposits of coal, oil, or natural gas (fossil fuels, which increased the atmospheric carbon dioxide)

-fossil fuels store carbon left over from bodies of organisms that died millions of years ago

-they are located in the surface of earth, deep within the earth and beneath the ocean floor."
