Explanation

As temperature increases, the solubility of gases like oxygen and carbon dioxide in water decreases.

This happens because gas molecules gain energy and escape more easily from the liquid.

Explanation

Blood pressure is the force exerted by blood against the walls of arteries.

It reflects how hard the heart is working to pump blood through the arterial system.

Explanation

• Insects like bees, butterflies, moths, and beetles are important pollinators of plants in gardens.
• They visit flowers to collect nectar and pollen, and in the process, transfer pollen from one flower to another, allowing for fertilization to occur.

Explanation

Amylase is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of starch into sugars.

All amylases are glycoside hydrolases.

It is used in breadmaking.

Additional information:

Protease: 

is an enzyme that catalyzes proteolysis.

Lipase:

Is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of fats.

Peptidase:

is an enzyme that breaks down peptides into amino acids.

Explanation

Hydrolysis of one mole of ATP to ADP and inorganic phosphate releases approximately 7.3 Kcal of energy.

This energy is used to power various biological processes in cells.

Explanation

Explanation

The Nearctic region includes North America, where animals like prairie dogs, buzzards, opossums, and mountain lions/dogs are commonly found.

It is one of the major biogeographic realms.

Explanation

The ABO blood group gene is located on chromosome number 9.

It codes for glycosyltransferase enzymes that determine blood type.

Explanation

A terrestrial food chain typically starts with a producer (like grass), followed by primary consumers (herbivores like grasshoppers), then secondary consumers (like snakes), and ends with top predators (like eagles).

This sequence shows the correct flow of energy from plants to top carnivores.

Explanation

• Deliquescence is the property of a substance to absorb moisture from the air on exposure.
• This resulting in the formation of a solution or a liquid.
• This occurs when a substance has a high affinity for water.
• It can absorb it from the surrounding environment.
