The graph presented here depicts the activation energy, or the amount of energy needed for a reaction to proceed, with and without an enzyme. a. Which reaction requires more energy to proceed—the one with or without an enzyme? How do you know? b. Is this reaction anabolic or catabolic? How do you know?

The Km for X will be affected if Y is present in the reaction mixture.
a
Y is a competitive inhibitor of X.
The Km for X will increase.
d
The Vmax for X will be affected if Y is present in the reaction mixture.
pH dependence of Vmax reflects the ionization state of catalytic site residues.
e
Consider the following: X and Y are methanol (poisonous) and ethanol respectively. If the Km for X= 0.01 M and the Km
f
for Y = 0.001 M then 0.01 M Y is 10 times the concentration of Y required for 0.5 Vmax.
