energy to break. Why would that be problematic for living organisms to maintain homeostasis?
![Which of the following statements is correct?
a. The expression: ΔG=ΔH - TΔS shows that free energy (G) is directly related to entropy (S)
b. A spontaneous change in a system involves an increase in free energy.
c. The product of an exergonic reaction contains more energy than the reactions.
d. Enzymes speed up metabolic reactions by increasing the electronegativity of atoms.](https://media.kunduz.com/media/sug-question/raw/57613243-1659272127.9465413.jpeg?w=256)

![What best describes the processes of pasteurization and ultra-pasteurization of milk?
Pasteurization raises the temperature to approximately 72° C for 15 seconds, slowly ramping up the temperature, while ultra-pasturization raises the temperature to 72° very fast to shock the contaminating microbes.
Pasteurization raises the temperature to approximately 72° C for 1 minute while ultra-pasturization raises the temperature to approximately 72° C for 3 minutes.
Pasteurization only uses heat while ultra- pasturization uses both heat and irradiation.
Pasteurization raises the temperature to
approximately 72° C for 15 seconds while
ultra-pasturization raises the temperature
well above the boiling point but for a
shorter time before rapidly cooling it.](https://media.kunduz.com/media/sug-question/raw/56327943-1659216398.782489.jpeg?w=256)

![You build 2 protein molecules, each from 113 amino acids. The amino acid sequence is identical for each protein molecule, except for the amino acid in position #8. In one protein molecule, the amino acid in position #8 is glycine. In the second protein molecule, the amino acid in position #8 is methionine. Do you expect these two proteins to have different 3D, folded structures?
No, because this is just one amino acid out of many.
Yes, because an amino acid change at the beginning of the polypeptide sequence will always affect protein shape.
No, because both R groups will orient toward the protein's exterior.
Yes, because glycine's R group is much smaller than methionine's R group.
No, because both R groups will orient toward the protein's interior.](https://media.kunduz.com/media/sug-question/raw/56341832-1659213811.8606567.jpeg?w=256)
