- 1/How can an inhibitor affect enzyme activity in a cell? 2/Outline glycolysis in terms of phosphorylation and dephosphorylation. 3/ Cells can be broken and then centrifuged to separate organelles, such as mitochondria. If isolated mitchondria were then broken and centrifuged, the membranes would separate from the matrix. Knowing this, develop a hypothesis about the properties of either the matrix or the membranes. Clearly identify what you intend to discover and briefly outline how you would test your hypothesis.arrow_forwardA young man in his 20s has a heart attack and is rushed to the hospital.
