- Introduction: (4 pts) (Answer questions in paragraph form - 300 words max) What are enzymes and what do they do? What are the optimal conditions for an enzyme? What factors affect enzyme activity and how? How is the structure of an enzyme related to its function? What is amylase? What reaction does it catalyze? Research the amylase enzyme you used (organism) and the optimal conditions of temperature, pH, or salt, it requires. Explain why DNS is used and why it is important for determining enzyme activity. Cite and reference your sources using APA style.arrow_forwardQ12. Suppose you conduct an experiment in the laboratory in which you add increasing amounts of substrate to a solution containing an enzyme and a pH buffer. You incubate the container at the optimal temperature for the enzyme. Each time you add more substrate, you measure the rate of the reaction. Also suppose that you graph the results such that the x axis shows the substrate concentration, and the y axis shows the resulting reaction rate. What will you find over time? A. The rate of the reaction will increase rapidly, taper off, and plateau. B. The resulting graph will be a perfect bell curve. C. The rate of the reaction will increase slowly, plateau, and then drop sharply back to zero. D. The rate of the reaction will proceed with a slope of 1 and continue in a linear fashion indefinitely or until you run out of reactants.arrow_forwardQ6. Organism A grows at high temperature; Organism B grows at low temperature. What could be assumed about Organism A and B? Organism B has more unsaturated fatty acids in its membranes than Organism A. Organism A has proteins whose tertiary structure is held together with bonds of a higher energy than Organism B. Organism A would not grow as quickly at low temperature as Organism B. Organism A would produce more desaturase enzymes than Organism B. A. 1,2 and 3 B. 1 and 3 C. 2 and 4 D. 4 only E. All of 1,2,3 and 4 are correctarrow_forward

- Q40. Both Photosynthesis and respiration rely on electron transport. Although there are many differences, what do these electron transport chains have in common? In both, the electron donor (water in the case of photosynthesis, NADH in the case of respiration) is a strong reducing agent In both, the proteins which shuttle the electrons (Plastoquinone in photosynthesis, Ubiquinone in the case of respiration) are oxidized and reduced In both, electrons move spontaneously from high to low redox potential.
