Eukaryote cells are highly specialized and compartmentalized due to the presence of membrane bound organelles. Which of the following statements supports the claim that compartmentalization of cellular tasks aids in efficient cellular function?
A. By separating competing chemical reactions from one another, cooperation between organelles becomes more difficult.
B. Compartmentalizing the cell's tasks prevents the cell from depleting necessary resources for completing those tasks.
C. By separating competing chemical reactions from one another, cellular function is maximized for efficiency.
D. Localizing the cell's tasks to individual compartments prevents cells from carrying out competing simultaneous metabolic processes.

Enzyme B has an optimal pH of 8. What would happen if Enzyme B were exposed to the optimal conditions of Enzyme A?
A. Enzyme B would function as normal.
B. The lowered pH would cause a disruption of Enzyme B's tertiary structure, thus causing the enzyme to be less effective or even ineffective.
C. Enzyme B would ionize in the solution and its performance would increase.
D. The active site of Enzyme B would unfold so that the appropriate substrate would fit into it better.
