Which statement best describes the action of a non-competitive inhibitor? Which statement best describes the action of a non-competitive inhibitor? A non-competitive inhibitor binds to the target substrate and degrades the molecule, preventing a chemical reaction from taking place. A non-competitive inhibitor binds outside of the active site and alters the shape of the enzyme. A non-competitive inhibitor binds to the target substrate, preventing the substrate from binding the enzyme. A non-competitive inhibitor binds to the active site, preventing substrate from binding the enzyme.

A non-competitive inhibitor binds outside of the active site and alters the shape of the enzyme.

Explanation:

A noncompetitive inhibitor would never bind to the active site of the enzyme. It binds to some other site on the enzyme. A non-competitive inhibitor inhibits the action of the enzyme by causing conformational changes in the enzyme so that the enzyme cannot catalyze the conversion of the substrate into the product. In the presence of a non-competitive inhibitor, binding of the substrate to the enzyme is not affected.

relative dating involves things like higher layers are most recent than rocks lower in the sequence. this can be extended to the known sequence of fossils. rocks containing rabbit fossils are later than those containing dinosaur fossils.  

absolute dating methods mainly use radioactive elements that have known rates of decay and produce recognizable products. for example potassium 40 decays to produce argon. once a rock has solidified the argon is trapped. by measuring the argon and potassium0 you can get an accurate number for the age.  

some other methods are good for archaeological ages. dendrochronology involves recognizing the sequence of tree rings. the orientation of magnetized particles in baked clay can be used to date a fire.

lunar landing mission. apollo 11 was the first manned mission to land on the moon. the first steps by humans on another planetary body were taken by neil armstrong and buzz aldrin on july 20, 1969. the astronauts also returned to earth the first samples from another planetary body.
