An enzyme possesses different kinetics for different substrates as a result of this different products are formed.

Discussion:

Multi-substrate reactions are governed by intricate rate equations that specify how and in what order the substrates bind. If substrate B is altered while the amount of substrate A remains constant, the study of these reactions becomes considerably easier. The enzyme behaves exactly like a single-substrate enzyme in these circumstances, and a plot of v by [S] yields the actual KM and Vmax constants for substrate B.
These results can be utilized to determine the reaction's mechanism if a series of such measurements are carried out at various fixed concentrations of A. There are two different sorts of mechanisms for an enzyme that accepts two substrates, A and B, and converts them into two products, P and Q: ternary complex and ping-pong.

Answer: Asexual reproduction

Asexual reproduction is a mode of reproduction in which a single parent is involved to produce the offsprings. This occurs in simple organisms. This does not requires formation of gametes like sexual reproduction. The offsprings are identical to the parent organism. Here, mother colony of protists, volvox gives birth to daughter as only single parent is involved it is a asexual mode of reproduction.

Order the events in which telomerase maintains chromosomal ends during replication. not all events will be placed.

inn [45]

<span>The RNA in telomerase is binded to a complementary sequence on DNA specifically to 3' G overhang and also the Nucleotides associated to RNA component of telomerase are binded to DNA at the 3 end. Now the Telomerase moves through DNA strand that is newly synthesized towards the 3 end. In the same way if there are any additional nucleotides they were all binded to 3 end of the DNA and then the telomerase is removed from the DNA completely. now to fill in the gap left by telomerase the synthesis occurs on the 5 end of DNA strand.</span>
