For this problem, we use the formula for radioactive decay which is expressed as follows:

An = Aoe^-kt

where An is the amount left after time t, Ao is the initial amount and k is a constant.  

We calculate as follows:

at hal-life equal to 5700,

An = Aoe^-kt

0.5 = e^-k(5700)

k = 1.22x10^-4

An = A

In the graph of an enzymatic reaction explain why the line begins as a straight line.
lianna [129]
Generally, the graph line will begin as a straight line when the substrate concentration is low. At very low substrate concentrations, the rate is proportional to the substrate concentration. As substrate concentration increases, it affects the enzymatic reaction, so the rate will change and the line will change.

Proteins are polymers. <br> a. True<br> b. False
xz_007 [3.2K]
False

Proteins are polymers of molecules called amino acids, some contain thousands. Lipids are formed when a glycerol molecule combines with compounds called fatty acids, therefore they are not polymers because they contain one molecule and are not macromolecules. Hope this helps! :)
