A commercial bank is a type of bank that provides services such as accepting deposits, making business loans, and offering basic investment products that are operated as a business for profit. E.g. AIB/ BOI

An immobilized enzyme is an enzyme attached to an inert, insoluble material—such as calcium alginate. This can provide increased resistance to changes in conditions such as pH or temperature

• Nitrogen-fixing bacteria, which convert atmospheric nitrogen to nitrates
• Nitrifying bacteria, which convert ammonia to nitrates/nitrites.
•  Denitrifying bacteria, which convert nitrates to nitrogen gas

The 5-carbon sugars ribose and deoxyribose are important components of nucleotides, and are found in RNA and DNA, respectively. The sugars found in nucleic acids are pentose sugars.

The whole range of biochemical processes that occur within a living organism. Metabolism consists of anabolism (the buildup of substances) and catabolism (the breakdown of substances). The term metabolism is commonly used to refer specifically to the breakdown of food... (More)

Enzymes speed up chemical reactions in the body, but do not get used up in the process, therefore can be used over and over again.

Enzymes are biological proteins

The specificity of an enzyme denotes its ability to act selectively on one substance or a small number of chemically similar substances, the enzyme's substrates. Like antibody specificity, enzyme specificity depends on a close fit between substrate molecules and their... (More)

• Innate immunity: Everyone is born with innate (or natural) immunity, a type of general protection. For example, the skin acts as a barrier to block germs from entering the body. And the immune system recognizes when certain invaders are foreign... (More)

T lymphocytes are cells that are programmed to recognize, respond to and remember antigens. T lymphocytes (or T cells) contribute to the immune defenses in two major ways. Some direct and regulate the immune responses.

Several factors affect the rate at which enzymatic reactions proceed - temperature, pH, enzyme concentration, substrate concentration, and the presence of any inhibitors or activators.

enzyme specificity depends on a close fit between substrate molecules and their binding sites on an enzyme.The apoenzyme is responsible for the enzyme's substrate specificity.

Diseases and conditions of the respiratory system fall into two categories: Infections, such as influenza, bacterial pneumonia and enterovirus respiratory virus, and chronic diseases, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
