What do enzymes do to metabolic reactions in living organisms?

They speed up reactions by lowering activation energy.

200

This organelle is the site of cellular respiration.

mitochondria
200

Archaebacteria and eubacteria are this type of cell, meaning they do not contain a nucleus or membrane-bound organelles. 

Prokaryotes

Which modern day organisms share a common ancestor at node 2?

C, D, and E.

400


Which macromolecule does this picture represent?

nucleotide

400

Number 1 is a substrate. Number 2 is an enzyme before heat treatment. Number 3 is an enzyme after heat treatment. What has happened to the enzyme at number 3?

The enzyme has become denatured and can no longer bind to the substrate. 

400

This is the theory that chloroplasts and mitochondria originated as organelles by being engulfed by an ancient blob cell.

Endosymbiotic theory or endosymbiosis.

Why is scientific naming important?

Scientific names are universal no matter the language spoken.
