1 answer:

7 0

Protein kinase is an enzyme that adds phosphate groups to molecules in order to alter their function. ADP, or adenosine diphosphate, has the ability to gain one phosphate group and can be acted on by protein kinase. If a molecule similar in structure to ADP were to come to protein kinase, it would bind to its active site and inhibit the binding of other molecules to the enzyme; therefore, impairing its function.

Answer:

↓

Explanation:

I can't really read what you have typed, but the subscripts are the little numbers such as this 2 in H₂O. So using the blue pen, I'm assuming you would circle the little numbers. The coefficients are the numbers in front of the elements so from what I can read, in 2HCl the 2 would be circled in the orange. So in a simple way the subscripts are the tiny numbers that are at the bottom (usually after elements), and the coefficients are normal numbers in front of the whole element.

Hopefully that makes sense! :)
