Answer and Explanation:
Enzymes are organic catalysts which are protein in nature. There are two types of naming enzymes:
<h3>Trivial naming</h3>
This method involves giving enzymes names based on the names of the persons who discovered them. The names of such enzymes end with the suffix-in, for example, pepsin, trypsin. Some of these names have been retained to date.
Enzyme Nomenclature by Enzyme Commission
This is the modern method of naming enzymes. The suffix-ase is added to the substrate or the reaction which the enzymes catalyses. Every enzyme code consists of the letters "EC" followed by the enzyme. For example
EC 1 oxidoreductases- oxidoreduction reactions
EC 2 transferases- transfer of a functional group
EC 3 hydrolases- catalyse hydrolytic cleaving
EC 4 lyases - adding groups to double bonds. e.g., C-C,C-O
EC 5 isomerases - catalyse structural changes in a molecule
EC 6 ligases - joining of two molecules
Answer: True
Explanation: The Achilles tendon is the largest and the strongest tendon in the body. When the calf muscles flex, the Achilles tendon pulls on the heel. This allows us to stand on our toes when walking, running, or jumping.
Different genes are activated in the blood cell than in the liver cell.
Explanation:
All the cells in the body contain the same number of genes and genetic material DNA but not all genes are expressed in a single cell.
The highly regulated process of the genes in molecular biology promotes the expression of particular gene required.
Signals from the cell environment activate the transcription factor that binds to regulatory regions of the gene, hence transcribing and making proteins for the same.
The genes for both blood cell and the liver are different but will be present in all the somatic cells, the regulatory mechanism will choose the required gene to be transcribed.
Temperature is
the term used to describe the average kinetic energy of the molecules in a shape.
Temperature is used because it is difficult to measure the speed of an
individual gas molecule. Kinetic energy is proportional to the speed of the
molecules. As the speed of the colliding molecules increases, the total kinetic
energy of all the gas molecules also increases. The gas molecules gain energy
and move faster and the temperature also goes up.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Important parts of circulatory system are heart, capillaries, veins, and arteries. The arteries are responsible for carrying red blood from heart and deliver oxygen to capillaries. Then capillaries deliver the waste carrying blood or deoxygenated blood to veins back to the heart.
But not all arteries carry blood with oxygen, the pulmonary arteries carry deoxygenated blood and not all veins carry blood with carbon dioxide, the pulmonary veins carry blood with oxygen.
Hence, the given statement is true.
