To determine: Whether V increases as S increases in the given problem.
Introduction: It is given that French chemist Victor Henri discovered that the hypothesis saying an enzyme physically binds to its substrate is true.
Explanation of Solution
Victor Henri performed an experiment in which he keeps increasing the concentration of substrate (S) to observe the
To determine: Whether V increases steadily or by smaller and smaller amounts.
Introduction: The extra energy required to break
Explanation of Solution
The graph given in the problem shows that the reaction rate increases as the concentration of substrate increases. It can be observed that the reaction rate increases steadily with an increase in substrate concentration until trial. The reaction rate increases by smaller amounts after the trial.
To determine: Whether there is a maximum reaction rate in the given problem.
Introduction: In a chemical reaction, a substrate is an original molecule that converts into a product at the end at a specific reaction rate.
Explanation of Solution
It has been observed that the reaction rate increases by smaller amounts after trial. This means the reaction rate can increase till a particular concentration of the substrate. Therefore, there is a maximum reaction rate that is equal to the maximum substrate concentration used in the trial.

From the natural population, 20 plants are taken into the laboratory and developed into separate true-breeding lines by self- fertilization-with selection for high, low, or medium number of seeds-for 10 generations. The average variance in the tenth generation in each of the 20 sets is about equal and averages 5.8 across all the sets. Estimate the broad-sense heritability for seed number in this population.
