Which of the following is one way in which organisms such as clown fish and sea turtles are able to overcome the many dangers that their offspring encounter and ensure that their species population numbers stay relatively steady

1. an enzyme is considered a(n) because it speeds up a chemical reaction without being used up.2. in a catalyzed reaction, a reactant is often called a(n) . an enzyme is specific because the shape of its matches only particular reactants.4. an enzyme speeds up reactions by lowering the . the between an active site and its substrate often strains bonds and the reaction proceed.6. a( , which is often a vitamin, binds to an enzyme and plays a role in catalysis.7. high temperatures or changes in ph can an enzyme, causing it to lose its shape and biological activity.

You are studying several alleles of an e. coli helicase gene. one allele, called rsr, confers resistance to rs2014, an antibiotic that works by inhibiting helicase activity. bacteria with the rss allele are sensitive to rs2014. another allele, called ts-, produces a temperature sensitive mutation of the helicase. in bacteria with the ts- allele, helicase is inactivated at 42 °c but functions normally at 37 °c. helicase functions normally at both temperatures in bacteria with the ts allele. you obtain the following data while testing four strains of e. coli at different temperatures and doses of rs2014. each number represents the percentage of maximal dna synthesis. based on this data, assign the appropriate genotype to strains a–d in the spaces provided
