The enzyme amylase will affect the breakdown
of carbohydrates, but it will not affect the break-
down of proteins. The ability of an enzyme
molecule to interact with specific molecules is
most directly determined by the
(1) shapes of the molecules involved
(2) number of molecules involved
(3) sequence of bases present in ATP
(4) amount of glucose present in the cell

It is claimed that grain supplement A can improve weight gain compared to grain supplement B if they are included in the diets at isoenergetic and isonitrogenous levels (ie. equal energy and protein). Can you suggest a possible hypothesis? What is/are the dependent variable(s)? What is/are the independent variable(s)? What are the confounding factors?
