Although there is alot of water on earth some of it is contaminated and could be harmful for us to drink .Therefore people don't drink it in order to not get sick.

Even though our planet has a lot of water, some areas don't experience rain much and they aren't close to large bodies of water.

So in those areas they don't get to drink much water, because there isn't much available.


We may have a unlimited supply of water, but in other countries they might not. Hot, humid area's that don't experience rain won't have any water to drink, so they go to extreme measures and drink from cactus, or eat cactus fruit.


Also, most of the water on earth isn't drinkable which can cause sickness.

The enzyme Y catalyzes the elementary reaction
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

0.7μM = 0.6 μM = 0.5 μM > 0.4 μM > 0.3 μM > 0.2 μM

Explanation:

An enzyme solution is saturated when all the active sites of the enzyme molecule are full.  When an enzyme solution is saturated, the reaction is occurring at the maximum rate.

From the given information, an enzyme concentration of 1.0 μM Y can convert a maximum of 0.5 μM AB to the products A and B per second means that a 1.0 M Y solution is saturated when an AB concentration of 0.5 M or greater is present.

The addition of more substrate to a solution that contains the enzyme required  for its catalysis will generally increase the rate of the reaction. However, if the enzyme is saturated with substrate, the addition of more substrate will have no effect on the rate of reaction.

<em>Therefore the reaction rates at substrate concentrations of 0.7μM, 0.6 μM, and 0.5 μM are equal. But the reaction rate at substrate concentrations of  0.2 μM is lower than at 0.3 μM, 0.3 μM is lower than 0.4 μM and 0.4 μM is lower than 0.5 μM, 0.6 μM and 0.7 μM.</em>
