Explain why enzymes affect specific types of reactions.

Biology
1 answer:
jekas [21]3 years ago
4 0

Enzymes are made of proteins that are capable of catalyzing a reaction in which various substrate are converted to products through the formation of an intermediate enzyme-substrate complex. It hastens reactions and acts as a catalyst without themselves undergoing permanent chemical changes. The catalytic ability of enzymes is due to its particular protein structure.

Refer to the Biochemistry in Focus section of your text for this chapter to answer this question. A mutation in Complex I decrea
quester [9]

Answer:

Complex II

Explanation:

The electron transport chain refers to a group of electron transporters embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane that transfer electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors which undergo redox (reduction and oxidation) reactions. The energy released during the transfer of electrons is coupled to the transfer of protons (H+) from the mitochondrial matrix into the intermembrane space, generating an electrochemical gradient that is then used to synthesize ATP. Complex I and Complex II are membrane-bound complexes that act as mitochondrial redox carriers. Complex I is a proton pump that uses energy from the electron transfer chain to pump protons, while Complex II sends H+ onto Complex III in the form of the reduced ubiquinol. Complex I receives electrons from NADH and transfers them to ubiquinone, while Complex II directly receives the redox cofactor FADH2 that does not pass through Complex I.

How are erosion and weathering alike
yaroslaw [1]
Weathering and erosion are similar in that they both work together to change and shape the Earth's surface. While weathering breaks rock and earth down, erosion is the displacement of the pieces and particles of rock and earth.

When the source of a wave is moving relative to an observer of the wave, which of the following is true?
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Observers ahead of the wave observe an apparent increase in wave frequency  

Explanation:

This is the Doppler Effect. The frequency of a wave increases when the source approaches the observer and decreases as the source recedes.

B, C, and D are wrong. Observers behind the source notice a decrease in frequency.

Which of the following is not responsible for driving deep ocean circulation?
Deffense [45]

Answer:

Winds

Explanation:

Winds only act on oceans surfaces. The winds move the upper layers of ocean waters due to drag as they blow in the atmosphere. They are the reason for waves. However, the effects of winds cannot be felt in deep oceans where much of the movement is dependent on variable densities of ocean currents (due to differences in temperatures and salinity levels).
