Enzymes are proteins that help increase the rate of chemical reactions inside cells. These proteins are composed of many simpler molecules called amino acids. Which suggests that the shape of an enzyme determines the enzyme's function?
a) Enzymes are specific to a substrate
b) Enzymes can operate in a wide range of condidtions
c) Enzymes are activated by neighboring molecules

Which of the following corrrectly describes how a diagram of cellular respiration would differ from a diagram of photosynthesis?
a) The cellular-respiration diagram would show electromagnetic waves as the final product
b) The cellular-respiration diagram would show glucose as the main source of energy
c) the cellular-respiration diagram would show energy stored ina large protein molecules
d) the cellular-respiration diagram would show water as the main source of chemical energy

Plant hormones serve as chemical messengers between cells and tissues. Auxin is a plant hormone that causes the cells on the shady side of a plant shoot to elongate. The response enabled by auxin is known as-

b) the enzymes amylase and pepsin
c) muscular contractions
d) hydrochloric acid in the stomach

Changes in water pressure within guard cells cause the cells to open or close the stoma. This response helps the plant maintain homeostasis by-
a) Stabilizing the plant's temperature through the evaporation of water
b) Regulating the amount of water the plant loses during transpiration
c) Allowing oxygen needed for photosynthesis to enter the plant
d) Enabling the plant to release more carbon dioxide at night for photosynthesis
