Answer:
Enzymes are proteins that act as catalysts for reactions, such as those in cellular respiration. They increase the likelihood of a reaction by lowering the energy required for a reaction to occur. In the process, enzymes are left unchanged by the reaction. ... The resulting molecules from the reaction are called products.
Explanation:
b. interference
c. transduction
d. transformation
Answer:
The process is called signal transduction
Explanation:
Signal transduction entails the binding of a ligand or extracellular signal to a receptor and this gives rise to a biochemical cascade of reactions, interactions forming networks and this elicit cellular responses. These responses may include, post translational modifications, changes in gene transcription and translation.
Answer:
The process is called signal transduction.
Explanation:
Signal transduction is the process by which chemical or physical signal is transfered from outside of the cell to the interior of the cell thereby transforming the information from one form to another form to ensure adequate response. Signal transduction depend on receptors protein.
There are three stages of signal transduction and they are;
1. Receptor or protein present at the cell surface detect signals.
2. Transduction, change in receptors enhance changes in the cell.
3. Response, the cell respond to the signal.
Answer:
b. Trans fats are worse for heart health than saturated fats because they raise LDL cholesterol and lower HDL cholesterol.
c. Increasing intake of plant foods may be one of the easiest ways to decrease LDL cholesterol.
d. Typically, the higher your consumption of saturated fats, the higher the LDL cholesterol levels in your blood.
Explanation:
Generally, the consumption of saturated fat increases the amount of LDL cholesterol in the blood system while the consumption of unsaturated fat can reduce the amount of LDL cholesterol in the blood system. In addition, the consumption of plant food can reduce the amount of LDL in the blood system. Trans fats are more harmful to one's heart than saturated fat because they can increase the amount of cholesterol in the blood system.
Answer:b,c,d
Explanation:a. Unsaturated fats are mostly beneficial to health, e.g- omega 3 fatty acids, and are not known causes of LDL increase.
b. Trans fats are known to increase LDL cholesterol while also decreasing HDL cholesterol levels. We do not find this in saturated fats which are known to only increase LDL cholesterol.
c. Plants possess "soluble fiber" that drastically help to reduce cholesterol levels. They are known to be very low in saturated fats, and also free of cholesterol.
d. Saturated fats are common causes of elevated LDL in blood stream.
e. Dietary cholesterol as opposed to serum cholesterol are fats found in our diets(food) that may contain high levels of cholesterol that increase LDL levels in blood.

Answer:
Pepsin is an enzyme present in the gastric juice which digests the proteins of the food material.
These pepsin are synthesized as pre-proenzymes or inactive forms by chief cells in the gastric mucosa of the stomach. These inactive forms consist of a signal peptide, activation peptide and active enzyme which gets activated in the acidic environment of stomach by Hydrochloric acid.
The stomach secrets this enzyme in an inactive form to prevent the digestion of protective proteins present in the lining of the digestive tract.
A. The avian influenza strain could be transmitted easily from human to human.
B. An epidemic would likely ensue due to the lack of immunity to the new avian influenza strain.
C. The avian influenza strain could be transmitted directly from birds to humans.
D. The avian influenza strain would only infect the lower respiratory tract of humans.
Hint: Alpha-2,6 sialic acid is expressed throughout the human respiratory tract.
Answer:
Of the mentioned statements, the incorrect one is option D.
Explanation:
The normal H5N1 strain or the bird flu virus when get attached with the alpha 2,3-sialic acid results in the infection of the lower respiratory tract in humans. The condition occurs very rarely. In comparison, the H1N1 or the human influenza strain gets attached with alpha-2,6 sialic acids and easily results in the infection of the upper and lower respiratory tract.
However, if the mutation takes place in the H5N1 strain, it can bind with the alpha-2,6 sialic acid and can result in the overall infection of the human respiratory tract. Now due to the occurrence of mutations in the H5N1 strain, bird flu can get transmit easily from birds to humans and from one human to another human. Also due to lack of immunity because of the emergence of new strain, the condition can become lethal as, like normal flu, the mutated strain can also result in the infection of the entire respiratory tract.
