Question
Chapter 23, Problem 23.28P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Using the given data, whether inhibition by 2 m urea is competitive or noncompetitive is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Competitive inhibition occurs when a substance that is not the substrate of the enzyme under normal condition can also bind to the enzyme’s active site. This results in direct competition with the substrate for the active site. Noncompetitive inhibition occurs when an inhibitor binds to a site present on the enzyme that is distinct from the active site which causes an alteration in the shape of the active site, making it unavailable for the substrate.

An 90 kg subject consumed a snack that contained 80 g of carbohydrate. Before eating the snack the subject’s blood glucose was 6.0 mmol.L-1. Calculate the concentration of glucose (mM) that would be reached in the blood after consuming the snack.Assume that all the carbohydrate in the snack was converted to glucose, rapidly absorbed and distributed throughout the extracellular water (ECW) within 30 minutes. Assume ECW is approximately 20% of body weight and the glucose is not metabolised further.
