Fireflies emit light. The production of light by an organism is called bioluminescence. To generate visible light, cells in a firefly's tail produce thousands of luciferase enzymes. Luciferase binds to a chemical called luciferin. Once bound, the luciferase enzyme speeds up a chemical reaction that combines an oxygen molecule and luciferin to produce oxyluciferin. This reaction requires energy and releases light. Which of the following best describes how the luciferase enzyme speeds up the chemical reaction?

Which of the following is an example of competition that could be found in a forest? question 14 options: deer eat berries and their droppings seed new areas creating more berry bushes two fox populations utilize the same rabbit population as their main food source two hawk populations utilize the same scorpion population as their main food source lack of sunlight due to changes in the seasons restricts the growth of certain plants

(a) one fin is spiny, the other is smooth ® 3 (b) one fin is not spiny or smooth ® 4 5. (a) has small fin on back near tail ® 6 (b) has no fin on back near tail ® 7 6. (a) has barbs near the mouth ® catfish (b) does not have barbs near the mouth ® 10 7. (a) tail is asymmetrical ® 8 (b) tail is symmetrical ® 9 10. (a) scales are small ® trout (b) scales are large ® whitefish what is the next step to complete to identify a fish that has a single dorsal fin, no fin on the back near the tail, and no barbs near the mouth? step 2 step 5 step 7 step 10

This is the process of making a prediction based on the results of prior observations of similar events.
