As you change the temperature from a low temperature to a high temperature what happens to the rate of an enzymatic reaction, in general terms? A The reaction rate will steadily increase as the temperature increases. B The reaction rate will steadily decrease as the temperature increases. C The reaction rate will start low, then increase, and then decrease again as the temperature increases. D The reaction rate will not change as the temperature increases.
Examine the metabolic pathway shown in Figure 8.18. Draw a table indicating the relative concentrations of molecules A, B, C, and D if you were to remove Enzyme 1, 2, or 3 from the system.
Assume you have a solution of reactions with an enzyme. You decided to apply heat to further “increase” the rate of reaction. However, after heating, you observed that the rate of reaction decreased, the enzymes’ activity decreased, which is the opposite of what you have expected. Explain what happened. Discuss what happens when the solution contains a high concentration of substrates.
Which of the following is a reactive oxygen species that can damage proteins? Select one: a. vitamin C b. superoxide c. arsenic d. oxygen e. heat
Define the following terms:a. catalystb. transition statec. substrated. activation energye. active site2. Define the foll
You are performing an experiment in which you are measuring the rate at which succinate is converted to fumarate by the enzyme succinic dehydrogenase. You decide to add a little malonate to make things interesting. You observe that the reaction rate slows markedly and hypothesize that malonate is inhibiting the reaction. Design an experiment that will help you decide whether malonate is acting as a competitive inhibitor or a noncompetitive inhibitor.
Enzymes catalyze a chemical reaction by A. decreasing the amount of ATP required to activate a reaction B. increasing the amount of ATP required to activate a reaction C. slowing down the reaction to obtain more products D. increasing the reaction to obtain more products E. decreasing the amount of ATP required and obtaining more products.
