Question

Please help me answer this question. It is a physical chemistry question, so it needs to be answered from a physical chemistry point of view. Any help would be appreciated.

1: (20 points) The paragraph below was taken from parts of the abstract of a paper in a biological journal. Biologists have recently rediscovered a classical model from physics predicting collision rates in an ideal gas. The models, and their two-dimensional analogues, have been used to predict rates and durations of encounters among animals or social groups that move randomly and independently, given population density, velocity, and distance at which an encounter occurs. They have been used to estimate the impact of population density, speeds of movement, and size on rates of encounter between members of the opposite sex, between gametes, between predators and prey, and between observers and the individuals they are counting Provide a critique of these biological applications of Kinetic Theory. Consider the following questions Are the applications realistic? . Are the assumptions on which kinetic theory is based valid for these systems? . If the assumptions are NOT valid, o how would that affect these applications o Could their models be corrected to overcome the problem? If so how? ond with a letter to the editor explaining in detail your concerns, and what a correct application, is one exists, would be.

Explanation / Answer

bilogical interactions are very important in living processes, such as enzyme catalysed reactions, protein binding and transport etc, because of huge imortance of these interactions in living processes, various techniques have been devoloped to know about these.the rate or kinetics of these interactions or process is important to know and thereby we can understand the mechanism of that one,

so kinetics play a key role in biological process.
