Answer:

The correct answer is option e) "low acetyl coa / coa-sh ratios".

Explanation:

Allosteric inhibition, also known as negative allosteric modulation, occurs when a ligand decreases one enzyme's affinity to its substrate by binding to a site different from the active site. One classic example of allosteric inhibition takes place in pyruvate dehydrogenase, an enzyme that converts pyruvate into acetyl-CoA by a process called pyruvate decarboxylation. Pyruvate dehydrogenase is inhibited by the end products of the reactions that it catalyzes to regulate its activity. Therefore, a low acetyl coa / coa-sh ratios would not inhibited pyruvate dehydrogenase, on the contrary, a high concentration of acetyl coa would inhibit its activity.

Answer:

e) low acetyl-CoA/CoA-sh ratios

Explanation:

The enzyme pyruvate dehydrogenase is allosterically inhibited by a high concentration of some of the products of the reaction it catalyzes: NADH and Acetyl-CoA, and ATP (since its a enzyme involved in the cellular respiration, a metabolic process that converts organic molecules into energy/ATP).

So, if you have a low ratio of acetyl-CoA/CoA-sh  it means you have a more of CoA-sh than acetyl-CoA, therefore wouldn't allosterically inhibited the enzyme.

Describe the effect on an enzyme of an increase in environmental temperature above the optimum temperature range of the enzyme.
Luden [163]

Answer:

In an environmental temperature above optimum temperature will cause the enyzmes to denature (deform), because when they denature the subtrate will no longer fit into the enzyme

*EXTRA PTS* How much weight is needed for a 10 m high ball to achieve 400 J of potential energy?
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

,Mass of the Body = 10 kg.

Height = 10 m.

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s².

Using the Formula,Potential Energy = mgh

= 10 × 9.8 × 10 = 980 J.

(b). Now, By the law of the conservation of the Energy, Total amount of the energy of the system remains constant.

∴ Kinetic Energy before the body reaches the ground is equal to the Potential Energy at the height of 10 m.

∴ Kinetic Energy = 980 J.

(c). Kinetic Energy = 980 J.

Mass of the ball = 10 kg.

∵ K.E. = 1/2 × mv²

∴ 980 = 1/2 × 10 × v²

∴ v² = 980/5

⇒ v² = 196

∴ v = 14 m/s.

Question #2<br> In what way do pathogens cause infection and disease?
Dovator [93]
Pathogens generally invade the body, in their invasion they can duplicate and cause confusion such as hijacking your cells, thus they cause infection and disease. Some of these pathogens are spread through air, sweat, blood, excrete (urine/feces), or general human contact with anything concealing the pathogen.
