Question

The chemical processes in your body are facilitated by enzymes which determine the rate at which different reaction occurs. The rate of a chemical reaction v is determined by the Michaelis-Menten equation. For example consider the following reaction breaking down a substrate S into two particles P1 and P2.

The Michaelis-Menten equation tells us that the rate of the reaction is: v = aS/ b+S .

 Question 1: Plot v if a = 0.14 and b = 0.015 for a domain of S ∈ [0, 0.5] (See attached image for diagram!)

Question 2:  How do we find the horizontal asymptote? (multiple choice, choose one below)

A. limS→0 v(S)

B. limS→∞ v(S)
