Answer and Explanation:

Why does enzyme activity plateau as substrate concentration increases?

Simple. The enzyme is saturated, now all available enzyme molecules are busy processing substrates.

Answer: Unavailability of Enzymes site

Explanation:

Enzymes are protein that speeds up chemical reaction.

when the substrate concentration is low the reaction rate is low bit an increase in substrate concentration leads to an increase in reaction rate and abundant free enzyme available (E) to bind the added substrate.

When the substrate concentration is high the reaction reaches a stable/ plateau stage as the enzyme active sites become saturated with substrate (ES complex), and no free enzyme site to bind the added substrate.

Reaction plateau because there are no free enzyme site to bind to by the Subtrate this is because all the site are occupied by substrate so an increase in substrate concentration will not increase the reaction rate until there are free enzymes site to bind to by the substrate in the absence the reaction reaches plateau.

These are nucleotides that have a single ring structure. Example: Cytosine, Thymine, and Uracil
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The question is incomplete.

However, I notice that your question is mainly dealing with

"Nucleotides with a single ring structure"

I tackled that part, also providing explanation to the point you focused on.

Explanation:

Nucleotides are compounds in which nitrogenous bases (purines and pyrimidines) are conjugated to the pentose sugars (ribose or deoxyribose) and at least one phosphate group. Thus a nucleotide consists of a nitrogenous base, pentose sugar and at least one phosphate group.

Examples of the nitrogenous bases are Adenine, Guanine, Thymine, Uracil and Cytosine. Of all, Thymine, Uracil and Cytosine are with single ring, while Adenine and Guanine are double ring structure.
