- Part A: Say that a cell is running a metabolic pathway that follows the same pattern as the diagram and something happens that prevents enzyme 3 from reacting normally. Of the following options, which one is the end result of this interrupted metabolic pathway? Part B: for this reaction to be an example of feedback inhibition, the ____ would have to be blocking enzyme 3. Answer choices: • pH • Product • Salinityarrow_forwardYou design an experiment to explore the effects of enzyme concentration on the rate of glucose (product) production. In the experiment, you prepare 5 tubes with equal amounts of water and substrate but altered the amount of enzyme. Tube #1 did not have enzyme, Tube #2 had 100 mg of enzyme, Tube #3 had 200 mg of enzyme, Tube #4 had 300 mg of enzyme, Tube #5 had 400 mg of enzyme. The results are summarized in the graph. Select all that apply. Given enough time all tubes (#1-5) would reach 1100 mg/dL. The substrate in tube #1 was denatured at 40 minutes. The fastest rate of reaction was in Tube #4. Adding more enzyme to Tube #5 at 40 minutes would produce more product. Tube #4 and #5 have run out of substrate at 40 minutes.arrow_forwardThe movement of energy between living organisms is a matter of atoms, molecules and compounds being built into larger molecules or being broke into smaller ones.
