During a laboratory experiment, you discover that an enzyme-catalyzed reaction has a G of -20 kcal/mol. If you double the amount

of enzyme in the reaction, what will be the G for the new reaction?

Answer:

-20 kcal/mol (It stays the same)

Explanation:

Enzymes will reduce the Gibbs free energy of activation, but will neither increase or decrease the free energy of reaction.

Enzymes means of activity is by decreasing the activation energy (Ea or ΔG✳) for a reaction. This in turn raises the reaction rate.

Free energy of reaction

= free energy of product - free energy of substrate

The free energy of the product remains constant even without the enzyme. Hence, the enzyme would show no effect on the free energy of the reaction.

The attached image shows the effect of changes in enzyme concentration on the free energy.

Explain how the environment play a role in changing the frequency of a mutant allele in a poplution
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

The environment plays a role in a mutant allele in a population because some mutations are more beneficial to the organism than other mutations.

Explanation:

Organisms with a beneficial allele mutation will be able to pass on their genes as they reproduce. The mutation makes them <em>fit</em> for survival in their environment. Other organisms <em>without </em>the beneficial allele won't be able to pass on their genes since it will be more difficult for them to survive in their environment. Natural selection will deem that the organisms with the mutation will survive better and be able to produce offspring with the same mutation.

Explain how the wind may be involved in the formation of sandstone arches.
WITCHER [35]

Answer

Wind may be involved in the formation of sandstone arches by facilitating erosion which wore away exposed sections of rocks and enlarges the cracks on the surface forming marrow sandstone fins.

Explanation

Sandstone arches can be formed when a large piece of sandstone flaked off as a result of high winds. In addition to that, alternative frost and thawing can result into crumbling of porous sandstone which will in the long run cut through some fins. These resulting holes enlarge to form arches with effects of weathering and rock fall caused by wind.

How amphibians regulate their body temperature?
Allushta [10]
Frog temperature. Frogs are ectotherms, this means they gettheir heat from external sources. They are sometimes called 'cold blooded', but in fact they do not have cold blood, it is justregulated by their environment. In comparison, humans are endotherms and can maintain their body temperature at about 37°C.
