Answer 1

1) Biocatalysts increase the rate of a biochemical reaction and remains unchanged at the end.

2) An axon will depolarize if the membrane potential reaches -60mv following the voltage- dependent conductance or Ohm's law.

3) Less intravenous fluid would be given to a patient to reduce edema.

4) Diffusion increases the entropy of a solution.
