Question

QUESTION 2: The myriad of worms, mollusks, and crustaceans living in the intertidal zone are exposed to large fluctuations in temperature as tides move in and out. Amazingly, these animals are able to maintain rather constant metabolic rates even as the temperature of the water in which they live drastically changes (e.g., with swings in temperature sometimes reaching twenty degrees Celsius). These animals are able to maintain constant metabolic rates because they have enzymes that can continue to function over a broad temperature range. 2a. Keeping in mind the information discussed, identify the $Q_{10}$ value for metabolic rate in such animals for the temperatures to which they are commonly exposed.
