One of the many remarkable enzymes in the human body is carbonic anhydrase, which catalyzes the interconversion of carbon dioxid

e and water with bicarbonate ion and protons. If it were not for this enzyme, the body could not rid itself rapidly enough of the CO2 accumulated by cell metabolism. The enzyme catalyzes the dehydration (release to air) of up to 107 CO2 molecules per second. Which components of this description correspond to the terms enzyme, substrate, and turnover number?

Answer:

Enzyme is carbonic anhydrase

Substrate is CO_2

Turnover number is 10^{7}

Explanation:

An enzyme is used by a living organism as a catalyst to perform a specific biochemical reaction.

A substrate is a molecule upon which an enzyme acts.

Turnover number refers to the number of substrate molecules transformed by a single enzyme molecule per minute. Here, the enzyme is the rate-limiting factor.

Here,

Enzyme is carbonic anhydrase

Substrate is CO_2

Turnover number is 10^{7}

Activation process and importance of zymogen
ANEK [815]

Answer:

Zymogen ActivationZymogens are activated by snipping the bonds between two or more amino acids, rather like cutting a balloon string so that it floats away. When the bonds are cut, the enzyme changes its conformation, its 3-D structure, so that the active site is free and able to become active.

What is the ionic compound of Na^+ and CO3^2-
maksim [4K]

To find the chemical formula of an ionic compound, the first step is to find the charge of the 2 ions. As given already, the charge of sodium ion is 1+, and carbonate ion has a charge of 2-. We can picture it like that: Sodium ion loses 1 electron and carbonate ion gains 2.

The next step is to find how the 2 ions can lose and gain electrons equally. In this case, since each Na ion only loses 1 electron, it cannot satisfy the need of one carbonate ion, since they need 2, not 1. Therefore, 2 Na ions can cover the need of one carbonate ion. So, the ratio of Na to CO3 ion should be 2:1.

Now just combine the 2 ions, positive one at the front, which makes it NaCO3, make sure you do not add the charge and notice that CO3 is a molecule itself so do not remove the 3. Now because the ratio is 2:1, so the final formula is Na2CO3, no need to add 1 if the ratio is 1.

Your answer should be Na2CO3.
