- The graph presented here depicts the activation energy, or the amount of energy needed for a reaction to proceed, with and without an enzyme. a. Which reaction requires more energy to proceed—the one with or without an enzyme? How do you know? b. Is this reaction anabolic or catabolic? How do you know?arrow_forwardConsider the analogy of the jiggling box containing coins that was described on page 85. The reaction, the flipping of coins that either face heads up (h) or tails up (T), is described by the equation h ↔ T, where the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction.a. What are ΔG and ΔG° in this analogy? b. What corresponds to the temperature at which the reaction proceeds? What corresponds to the activation energy of the reaction? assume you have an “enzyme,” called jigglase, which catalyzes this reaction. What would the effect of jigglase be and what, mechanically, might jigglase do in this analogy?arrow_forwardWhat is the activation energy for a reaction? Why is activation energy necessary?arrow_forward
- If an enzyme has a maximal activity of pH 6.8 and your reaction buffer is a pH 5.8, what do you need to do to increase the activity of the enzyme? add a dilute solution of sodium hydroxide to the reaction buffer to decrease the pH. add a dilute solution of sodium hydroxide to the reaction buffer to raise the pH. add a dilute solution of acid to the reaction buffer to raise the pH. add a dilute solution of acid to the reaction buffer to decrease the pH.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements helps best explain the reaction specificity of an enzyme? a) The shape and charge of the substrates are compatible with the active site of the enzyme. b) The free energy of the reactants is greater than the free energy of the products. c) The equilibrium constant of the reaction is much greater than 1. d) The concentration of the enzyme inside living cells is greater than the concentration of substrate.arrow_forwardIf the shape of an enzyme’s active site were to change, what would happen to the reaction that the enzyme usually speeds up?arrow_forward
- “Enzyme increases the rate of a reaction by lowering the activation energy. In doing so, it also changes the equilibrium of that reaction.” Do you agree/disagree with this statement? And why?arrow_forwardWhy can’t enzyme kinetics prove that a particular enzyme mechanism is correct?arrow_forwardWhy must you only add the enzyme after all the other reagents have been added? Because until all reagents have been added the reaction mixture will not have the correct pH and/or ionic strength which may result in the enzyme been denatured and/or having reduced activity. Because until all reagents have been added the reaction mixture will not be at the correct temperature which may result in the enzyme been denatured and/or having reduced activity. Because until all reagents have been added the reaction mixture will not have the correct amount of substrate which may result in the enzyme not working optimally. Because the enzyme needs to be kept cold as long as possible, so it is not denatured and/or having reduced activity.arrow_forward
- What type of bonds in the tertiary structure of the enzyme break at high temperatures? Which ones will not break?arrow_forwardThe site on the enzyme surface where the reactant fits is referred to as the __________arrow_forwardStudents conducting research observe the rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction under various conditions with a fixed amount of enzyme in each sample. When will increasing the substrate concentration likely result in the greatest increase in the reaction rate?arrow_forward
