a. Food chain is the energy flow relationship between living organisms. For instance, sugar
cane → ant → sparrow —> snake —> eagle.
b. Outline global warming and its effects As the sun radiates short wavelengths to
the earth, some of it would be reflected out from the atmosphere while some are
absorbed. Then these radiation are then emitted as long wavelengths to the
atmosphere. While the long wavelengths are remitted to the atmosphere it
interacts with greenhouse gasses, thus trapping the heat. As a result, the
increasing temperature on earth results in the increase in the rate of
decomposition of detritus, increase in sea levels, and loss of habitat for the polar
bears. Ocean salinity changes

b. Producers, such as rice, are at the bottom of the trophic level. Above the
producers are the rats, primary consumers. On top of the primary producers are
secondary consumers like snakes. At the top of the trophic level is the tertiary
consumers such as foxes. trophic level is the flow of energy in an ecosystem
c. One of the methods of measuring the rate of photosynthesis is the amount of
CO2 in the atmosphere. It is indicated the increase of photosynthesis when the
amount of CO2 in the atmosphere is low. One other method of measuring the
rate of photosynthesis is measuring the oxygen level in the atmosphere. As the
rate of photosynthesis increases the oxygen level increases. Explain the process,

a. Species is the group of organisms that can be interbreeding to produce a fertile
offspring. Population is the group of the same species living in the same area of
time and place. Community is a group of different species or populations living
and interacting with other species in an area.
b. The energy is not efficiently flowing thus, 10% of energy loss occurs each time
moving up the trophic level in the ecosystem. Thus, the bottom level, producers
would be long, and moving up the trophic level would decrease in shape
significantly, resulting in a bottom heavy pyramid. Can draw the pyramid, energy
loss due to respiration…

b. The inserted genes are sliced by restriction genes and are connected DNA backbones
by ligase, resulting in a recombinant plasmid.
c. The benefits of genetic modification is the efficiency of maximizing the product and that it
is environmentally friendly. However, the long term effects of gene modified organisms
cannot be indicated. For example, Bt-maize is efficient to prevent pesticides from crops
allowing an increase in crop yielding.economic benefit, can grow crops in insufficient
land On the other hand, the long term issues are unknown and polarization in the
agricultural industry may occur. In addition, it may cross fertilize with other species in the

- During prophase, crossing over of chromosomes in the same gene loci occurs resulting
in the formation of different and combined alleles allowing an effective infinite genetic
variety of gametes.
- In addition, during meiosis 1 metaphases, chromosomes align in the center and are
separated arbitrarily, resulting in different gene combinations. Thus, different alleles
combined forms new alleles allowing an infinite genetic variety of gametes

a) One example of fibrous protein is keratin and an example of globular protein is amylase.
b) Fibrous protein is a secondary structure, a folding of amino acid chains. It is an
elongated shape of the protein and is consisted of two types alpha helix and beta
pleated sheet. While globular protein is a tertiary structure, a 3D and globular shape,
caused by the R group. Both are polypeptide similar things also, globular is rounded
Globular is soluble, fibrous is insoluble
c) The importance of polar and nonpolar amino acids in membrane proteins. Amino acid a
base unit of protein consists of a membrane along with a phospholipid bilayer. The
phospholipid bilayer, consisting of nonpolar and polar amino acids on either side of the
transmembrane, retains the position of protein in the membrane.
Help to retain position in the membrane, nonpolar amino acids have stable interaction in the
bilayer

a) Keratin, a fibrous protein unlike globular protein, is a secondary structure and an
elongated shape. Whereas, amylase, a globular protein, is 3D and globular shaped

a) One of the two functions of protein is catalysis. Rubisco, a protein, catalyzes specific
chemical reactions within or outside the cell. The other is tensile strengthening. Collagen
gains tensile strength needed in skin, tendons, ligaments, and blood vessel walls.

a) The active site changes its shape to fit and bind with the substrate, resulting in a
successful collision. active site: site on surface/portion of the enzyme to which the substrate
binds
b) Enzyme substrate specificity is the process of enzymes catalyzing with reactions. This
process can be demonstrated with the induced fit model. As substrates undergo a
conformational change in the active site, the active site changes shape to fit the
substrate. This stresses the substrate and reduces the activation energy.
enzymes fit together with substrates similar to a lock and key;
active site has shape that gives specificity;
enzymes catalyze a reaction with a specific substrate

Outline condensation and hydrolysis reactions using a different example for each.
Condensation and hydrolysis occur in carbohydrates and proteins. In carbohydrates, the
bond between glycerol and fatty acids forming triglyceride goes through condensation,
producing 3 H2O. In protein, the bonds of different amino acids forming a peptide bond
also go through condensation but if the bond is destroyed then hydrolysis occurs,
requiring H2O.
b)
The temperature and substrate concentration highly influence the enzyme activities at
certain points around the mid-range. For instance, the enzyme activity is the highest
when the temperature reaches the optimum temperature which is 37 degrees Celsius.
And on substrate concentration, the enzyme activity is the highest on the maximum at a
saturation point where a maximum of the enzyme activity has reached. Temp: Too slow
is inactive too fast is denature

a) Diffusion is the net movement of particles from a region of their higher to lower
concentration. There are 2 types of diffusion which are passive transport simple diffusion
and facilitated diffusion. Simple diffusion is the movement of particles without the help of
the channel and does not require ATP. Whereas, facilitated diffusion, molecules require
a channel and transmembrane proteins to pass through the membrane.

consisting of a nucleoid region, the Eukaryotic has a nucleus to store DNA. Prokaryotic
has 70s ribosomes whereas, eukaryotic has 80s ribosomes. Ribosomes are compounds
of protein and RNA that synthesizes the protein. Moreover, organelles including
cytoplasm, a fluid-like substance that allows metabolic reaction, flagella that propel cells
