Enolase is an enzyme that catalyzes one reaction in glycolysis in all organisms that carry out this process. The amino acid sequ

ence of enolase is similar but not identical in the organisms. Researchers purified enolase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a single-celled eukaryotic yeast that grows best at 37°C , and from Chloroflexus aurantiacus, a bacterium that grows best at the much higher temperature of 55°C . The researchers compared the activity of purified enolase from the two organisms by measuring the rate of the reaction in the presence of varying concentrations of substrate and a constant amount of each enzyme at both 37°C and 55°C .
(a) Depending on the organism, the optimal pH for enolase to catalyze its reaction is between 6.5 and 8.0 . Describe how a pH below or above this range is likely to affect enolase and its catalytic ability.

(b) Identify the appropriate negative control the researchers most likely used when measuring the reaction rate in the presence of each organism’s enolase.

(c) The researchers predict that for any particular concentration of substrate, the C. aurantiacus enolase-catalyzed reaction is more rapid at 55°C than at 37°C . Provide reasoning to justify the researchers’ prediction.

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Ph that is below or above the optimal range will result in enzyme activity loss.  if the pH changes above or below optimum range affects the charges that is present on the amino acid molecules. Amino acids presrnt in the active  site of enzymes that attracted each other may no longer continue to be attracted. Again, the shape of the active site of the enzyme changes due to the substrate binding will be affected. conclusively, we can say that the enzymes are denatured.

b) researchers are most likely to use a negative control when measuring the rate of reaction in the presence of each organisms. enolase is controlled  with no enzyme.

c) c) Since the C.aurantiacus grows best at 550C , we can say that the enzymes that they produce must be at this temperature and so they must be sensitive to this temperature ; hence they would show more activity at 550C temperature.

Maurinko [17]
Both "depends upon the binding of that substance to a specific site on the membrane protein" and "depends upon movement of proteins from one side of the membrane to the other" are correct.

The saturation effect prevents statement 2 from being true.

<span>Which storm is likely to cause quick destruction along a narrow path?
</span>
<span>A.tornado
B.hurricane
C.thunderstorm

Your answer would be a A.Tornado


</span>
<span>Which clouds are best associated with a thunderstorm?
A.high cumulonimbus
B.towering funnel clouds
C.swirling clouds with a calm center</span>
Thunderstorms occur in association with a type of cloud known as a cumulonimbus. So, <span>A.high cumulonimbus


 </span>
<span>Which statement best describes the formation of a hurricane?
A.Air pressure differences over the ocean cause fast, spinning winds.
B.An updraft of warm, moist air builds a cumulonimbus cloud.
C.A downdraft of air meets spinning updrafts.
</span>
Hurricanes begin as tropical storms over the warm moist waters of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans near the equator. As the moisture evaporates it rises until enormous amounts of heated moist air are twisted high in the atmosphere.
<span>A.Air pressure differences over the ocean cause fast, spinning winds.

</span>
<span>How are hurricanes and thunderstorms similar?
A.Both cover an area as large as 650 km.
B.Both involve the formation of large cumulonimbus clouds.
C.Both form when warm air rises, then cools quickly to form clouds.</span>

Hurrica<span>nes  and thunderstorms are both convective storms fueled by warm, moist air. </span><span>C.Both form when warm air rises, then cools quickly to form clouds.

</span><span>Is this statement true or false?
Hurricanes are classified by three stages in which updrafts of air billow up, updrafts and downdrafts swirl the wind up and down, then downdrafts cause clouds to come apart.
A.True
B.False

This would be true

</span>
<span>Which severe weather condition forms over warm, tropical areas?

A. tornado
B. hurricane
C. thunderstorm
</span>
Thunderstorms result from the rapid upward movement of warm, moist air. They can occur inside warm, moist air masses and at fronts. As the warm, moist air moves upward, it cools, condenses, and forms cumulonimbus clouds that can reach heights of over 12.45 miles.

Hurricanes develop in warm, tropical regions where the water is at least 80 degrees Fahrenheit  The storms also require moist air and converging equatorial winds.

A tornado can form where winds blow at different speeds causing rotation which can tighten and speed into a funnel cloud if caught in the flow of air moving into the storm. Rain and hail can cause the funnel to bend downward.

<span>B. hurricane is your answer


Hope it helped :)
