Enzymes and Cell respiration
respirometer
A device that can be used to measure the rate of exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide during fermentation is called a
one type of substrate.
A given enzyme works on
increase the amount of reaction.
An increase in enzyme or substrate concentration will
the reaction rate increases similarly.
As the concentration of an enzyme increases for a given substrate, the rate of the reaction decreases to a point. the reaction rate increases similarly. the turnover number decreases at the same rate that the enzyme concentration increases. the reaction stops. there is no change in the reaction.
measuring the formation of oxygen gas.
Catalase activity can be determined by
only A as substrate.
Consider the biochemical pathway below, where A, B, and C are substrates and products and E1 and E2 are the enzymes that catalyze the reactions. Enzyme 1 (E1) can utilize
by measuring how much of the substrate is consumed by measuring how much of the product is produced
Enzyme activity can be determined in the following ways: by measuring how much of the enzyme is consumed by measuring how much of the substrate is consumed by measuring how much of the product is produced determining when the amount of substrate is equal to the amount of product by measuring the ratio of enzyme to substrate concentration
at specific pH and temperature ranges.
Enzyme function is optimum
Substrates, products
Enzymes act on _______ to generate ________. Substrates, products Products, substrates Products, catabolites Glucose, anabolites
proteins
Enzymes are nucleic acids. proteins. lipids. carbohydrates. steroids.
They are proteins. They can bind with substrate. They act as catalysts.
Enzymes have which of the following characteristics? (check all that apply) They are proteins. They can bind with substrate. They act as catalysts. They are used up during the reaction. They are inorganic molecules.
at 37°C.
Enzymes in human cells tend to perform best when the person has a fever. at 60°C. at 37°C. at 98°C. at 22°C.
lowering activation energy.
Enzymes speed up reactions by
many times
How often can a catalase molecule be used to hydrolyze hydrogen peroxide? once never twice many times
The molecules of substrate were all bound to enzyme. As a reaction rate increases, eventually all available substrate molecules will be bound to enzymes, or all available enzymes will be bound to substrate. The reaction will be substrate-limited or enzyme-limited. When all available molecules of either enzyme or substrate are bound, saturation occurs, and at this point the reaction rate will level off. To keep increasing the reaction rate, the levels of available substrate or enzyme must increase. In the above example, additional enzyme was added, so substrate must have been the limiting factor.
Imagine that you are observing an enzyme-catalyzed reaction in lab. Every time you add more enzyme, the reaction rate increases proportionally until the reaction rate suddenly levels off. No other chemicals were added, and no modifications were made in the experimental setting. Why do you think the reaction rate stopped increasing? The enzymes were denatured. The molecules of enzyme were used up in the reaction. The molecules of substrate noncompetitively inhibited the enzyme. The molecules of product competitively inhibited the substrate. The molecules of substrate were all bound to enzyme.
a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and water.
In a catalase controlled experiment, the negative control can be shown by a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and catalase. hydrogen peroxide only. catalase only. a mixture of water and catalase. a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and water.
a mixture of water and catalase. a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and water.
In a catalase controlled experiment, the specificity of catalase can be shown by comparing a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and catalase. a mixture of water and catalase. a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and water. catalase alone. hydrogen peroxide alone.
