After reading the paragraph below, answer the questions that follow.

Lipase is an enzyme released by the pancreas that digests fats in the small intestine; however, lipase is also found in bacteria. Researchers examined lipase function in two species of bacteria, species X and species Y. Data regarding the activity of lipase as a function of temperature are shown below for the lipase from bacteria X (white circles) and the lipase from bacteria Y (black circles). Use this information to answer the following three questions.


Lipase activity as a function of temperature.


What can you conclude from data in the figure?
◦ The lipase from bacteria X is insensitive to changes in pH.
◦ Bacteria X likely lives in an environment that undergoes large changes in temperature.
◦ Only the lipase from bacteria Y denatures at high temperatures.
◦ The lipase from bacteria Y is more active than the lipase from bacteria X at 20°C.

Drug abusers experience the following scenario: The pleasure given by their drug (or drugs) of choice is so strong that it is difficult to eradicate even after years of staying away from the substances involved. Certain triggers may cause a drug abuser to relapse. Research shows that long-term drug abuse results in significant changes in brain function that persist long after an individual stops using drugs. It is most important to realize that the same is true of not just illegal substances but alcohol and tobacco as well.

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).
