In an experiment, a scientist notices that an enzyme’s catalytic rate decreases when the ph of the environment is changed. which of the following best summarizes the effect of ph on the enzyme? a.) ph changes the shape of the enzyme. b.) ph changes the atomic structure of the enzyme. c.) ph changes the ability of the enzyme to dissolve in water. d.) ph takes energy away from the enzyme, thus slowing it down.

What molecules will be best used to compare different species with the exact same sequence of amino acids? why would two species have the same protein even if the molecules in question is different? (hint: transcription to translation to protein).

Ascientist is designing an investigation to study the impact of invasive bird populations on local, native bird populations at backyard bird feeders. what population is most likely to be a control group for the investigation? amount of food number of bird feeders invasive bird populations local backyard birdfeeders without food

98 points you will be galileo perform the experiment to determine if objects with different mass fall at the same, or different, rates in the air and in a vacuum. before you conduct your experiment, you need to form a hypothesis. a hypothesis is a prediction of what you think will happen in the experiment. the hypothesis is a statement that describes “if” a certain set of circumstances are present “then” there will be a specific result that will occur. record your hypothesis here: record the results from step one of the experiment (dropping the objects in the air): first trial: second trial: third trial: record the results from step two of the experiment (dropping the objects in a vacuum): first trial: second trial: third trial: did the experiment support your hypothesis? using the data from your experiment, describe why you believe your hypothesis was either proven or disproven. what forces were acting on the objects dropped in the air? what force was acting on the objects dropped in the vacuum? part two: comparing forces choose two forces and compare and contrast these forces. you must provide two ways that they are alike and two ways that they are different. you may make a list, write in paragraph form, or make a chart. choose two forces and compare and contrast these forces. these must be different forces than used in the prior question. provide two ways that they are similar and two ways that they are different. you may make a list, write it out, or make a chart.
