How do substrate concentration and pH affect enzyme-controlled reactions

Biology
1 answer:
Dima020 [189]3 years ago
6 0
For example, pH can have an effect of the state of ionization of acidic or basic amino acids. Acidic amino acids have carboxyl functional groups in their side chains. Basic amino acids have amine functional groups in their side chains. If the state of ionization of amino acids in a protein is altered then the ionic bonds that help to determine the 3-D shape of the protein can be altered. This can lead to altered protein recognition or an enzyme might become inactive.

Changes in pH may not only affect the shape of an enzyme but it may also change the shape or charge properties of the substrate so that either the substrate connot bind to the active site or it cannot undergo catalysis.

In geneal enzyme have a pH optimum. However the optimum is not the same for each enzyme.

Place the following events in sequence: A) Food enters your large intestine; B) Food enters your small intestine; C) Food enters
Anarel [89]

Answer:

The correct sequence is

1st step- Option C

2nd step- Option B

3rd step- Option A

Explanation:

Initially, when a person swallows the food, it goes into the stomach through a muscular type of tube which helps in the transportation of food items and liquids from the mouth into the stomach, which is commonly known as the esophagus.

After passing through this tube and reaching the stomach, the liquid and food items mix up with the juice that it produces, and eventually releases its particles into the small intestine. These transported particles are known as chyme.

As the food particles reach the small intestine, its muscles allow the food particles to mix up with the digestive juices that are released from the organs namely liver, pancreas, as well as the intestine and helps in the proper digestion of the food. The walls of the small intestine extracts the nutrients that are digested into the bloodstream, where the blood supplies the nutrients into the remaining parts of the body.

After the food is digested and nutrients are absorbed into the body, the remaining waste products or undigested particles are transported to the large intestine, where it extracts the water and converts the waste particles into the stool, which are later eliminated from the body.

Thus, the correct sequence is arranged above.
