B. raise activation energy

C. supply activation energy

D. supply the reactants

A. move

B. synthesize proteins

C. produce DNA

D. divide

The process of cell division is found in non reproductive

A. meiosis

B. mitosis

C. replication

D. binary fission

During which phase of the cell cycle is DNA synthesized?

A. G1

B. G2

C. S

D. prophase

Explanation / Answer

Answer:

1). A. Lower activation energy

Explanation:

Enzyme is a catalyst that lowers the activation energy. The catalyst speeds up the rate of reaction without being consumed.

2). B. synthesize proteins

Explanation:

Ribosomes mainly involve in protein synthesis.

3). B. mitosis

Explanation:

Mitosis is a cell division and is not a reproductive process.

4). C. S

Explanation:

S-phase is synthetic phase, where DNA replicaiton takes place.
