Answer:

65

Explanation:

The DNA segment has a total 95 cytosine bases. Since cytosine makes hydrogen bonds with guanine base, this means that the DNA segment has a total 95 guanine bases.

Total guanine + cytosine bases in the segment= 95 + 95 = 190

So, a total of adenine and thymine bases in the DNA segment= 320-190 = 130

Since the number of adenine and thymine bases are equal in a double-stranded DNA molecule, the number of adenine bases in the given segment would be= 130/2= 65

Answer:

Vmax/ total enzyme concentration (Et)

Explanation:

According to the kinetics of Enzyme catalyzed reaction, the enzyme binds substrate and form the enzyme-substrate complex. The rate constant for this complex formation is K₁.

The enzyme complex later dissociates into the product and the enzyme itself ans the rate constant for this reaction is k₂. An enzyme-catalyzed reaction has the maximum velocity called Vmax.

The k₂ is also known as the turnover number which represents how many substrate molecules are converted into the products. The mathematical expression for this reaction is the:  

Vmax/ total enzyme concentration

Thus, Vmax/ total enzyme concentration (Et) is correct.
