Which of the following best describes the process of induced fit?

A substrate binds to the active site of an enzyme, causing the conformation of the active site to change slightly.

IDH is allosterically activated by ADP at high concentrations. Which of the following best describes how this interaction helps regulate the Krebs cycle?

High levels of ADP stimulate the Krebs cycle, leading to the increased conversion of ADP to ATP during oxidative phosphorylation.

Which of the following statements about letter B is true?

Letter B represents the activation energy of the catalyzed reaction pathway.

Consider a reaction in which reactants X and Y combine to form the product Z. The diagram below compares the reaction coordinates for the catalyzed and uncatalyzed pathways of this reaction. Which of the following statements about letter C is true?

Letter C represents the activation energy of the uncatalyzed reaction pathway.

Which of the following statements describes a likely result of this clustering?

Pathway intermediates are prevented from entering alternative metabolic pathways.

Which of the following would most likely result if pepsin's environmental temperature was lowered from 37C to 25C

Pepsin would be less efficient at catalyzing reactions.

Which of the following best describes how the Calvin cycle and the light reactions of photosynthesis function together?

The Calvin cycle uses ATP and NADPH generated by the light reactions to synthesize carbohydrates.

Based on the data above, which type of wheat is the best choice to grow in this region, and why?

Type 3, because the diversity of NB-LRR immune receptors in this type make it more likely to survive and reproduce in the region.

Which of the following occurs immediately after the electrons from PSII are captured by the primary electron acceptor?

Water is broken down.

Which of the following statements best describes the process carried out by glutamine synthetase?

Glutamine synthetase uses an exothermic reaction to drive an endothermic one by catalyzing the formation of a phosphorylated intermediate.

Which of the following best describes what happens when maltose binds with maltase?

Maltose binds to the active site of maltase, causing the conformation of the active site to change slightly.

Which of the following terms best describes cyanide?

Noncompetitive inhibitor

Based on the information above, which of the following best describes an effect of rising ADP levels in mitochondria?

Oxygen consumption will increase.

Which of the following claims is best supported by the results of the study described above?

The level of ATP in mutant flies is correlated with the severity of the phenotype seen in those flies

Which of the following statements accurately describes an energy-releasing process that is coupled to an energy-requiring process in the cell?

The movement of motor proteins is powered by the formation of ADP and inorganic phosphate from ATP.

Which of the following statements is true?

The organization seen in living cells, tissues, and organs is maintained by a constant input of energy.

Which of the following claims is best supported by the experimental results described above?

The product of the reaction catalyzed by Enzyme 2 is efficiently transferred to Enzyme 3.

Based on the data above, which of the following best describes what happens to the rate of product formation at higher initial substrate concentrations?

The rate of product formation levels off because nearly all of the enzyme is bound to substrate.

Based on the data above, which of the following best predicts how the rate of product formation will change if the initial substrate concentration is increased from 0.7M to 1.0M

The rate of product formation will not change significantly.

Which of the following best describes what will result when a glucose-fed yeast cell is placed in an anaerobic environment?

The yeast cell will produce ATP through fermentation, generating CO2 and ethanol as byproducts.

Which of the following pieces of evidence best supports the claim that the wild type version of the gene described above is not essential for ATP synthase function?

There is no lethal phenotype associated with a null mutation in the gene.

Which of the following insects from the population described above is likely to be most reproductively successful?

an insect with Variants 2 and 3

Based on the information provided, which of the following photosynthetic organisms can best absorb the wavelengths of light present at depths of 25 and 100 meters?

an organism with chlorophyll a and phycoerythrin

Based on the information above, which of the following is the most likely explanation for how cyanide causes histotoxic hypoxia?

cyanide inhibits the transfer of electrons to the final acceptor the electron transport chain

A newly discovered gene mutation causes fruit flies to have ATP synthase levels that are about one-third of normal. Based on the information presented in Figure 1, which of the following describes a likely outcome for a population made up of these flies?

~70%, percent of flies in the mutant population will die before reaching adulthood because the supply of ATP will not meet energy demands.
