A biologist working in a lab adds a compound to a solution that contains an enzyme and substrate. This particular compound binds

reversibly to the enzyme at the active site. Once the compound is bound to the enzyme, the catalysis of substrate to product stops. Which of the statements is true of the compound? a. The compound is a catalyst for the reaction. b. The effect of the compound cannot be overcome by adding more substrate. c. The compound is an allosteric inhibitor. d. The effect of the compound can be overcome by adding more substrate. e. The compound is an allosteric activator.

Answer:

The correct answer is C) The compound is an allosteric inhibitor.

Explanation:

An inhibitor works in many ways, but this particular one binds to the allosteric site in the enzyme causing a decrease of the enzymatic activity. When this situation happens, the inhibitor doesn't bind to the active site, but it changes the enzyme's shape so it cannot work properly anymore.

List five conditions that can disrupt genetic equilibrium and cause evolution to occur
Colt1911 [192]
1. Non random mating
                                    In genetic equilibrium individuals must mate at random. However, in many species, individuals select mates based on heritable traits, such as size, strength, or coloration, a practice known as sexual selection.

2. Small population size
                                        Genetic drift does not have major effects on large populations but can affect small populations. Thus evolutionary change due to genetic drift happens more easily in small populations.

<span>3. Immigration or Emigration
                                                 Individuals who join a populations may introduce new alleles into the gene pool. Likewise individuals who leave may remove alleles from the gene pool. Any movement of individuals into (immigration) or out of (emigration) a population can disrupt genetic equilibrium, a process know as gene flow.

4. Mutations
                   Individuals who join a populations may introduce new alleles into the gene pool. Likewise individuals who leave may remove alleles from the gene pool. Any movement of individuals into (immigration) or out of (emigration) a population can disrupt genetic equilibrium, a process know as gene flow.

5. Natural Selection
 if different genotypes have different fitness, genetic equilibrium will be disrupted, and evolution will occur.</span>
