Answer:

Chemical reactions are more likely to happen when electrons are in an excited state.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction occurs when certain substances undergo changes from their initial state (reagents), resulting in one or more products. For this to happen, the bonds between atoms and molecules must be broken and must be reestablished in another way. Because these bonds can be very strong, heat energy is usually required to initiate the reaction.

The activation energy acts as a kind of barrier for the reaction to occur, because the larger it is, the harder it will be for the reaction to occur. In some cases, power must be supplied to the reagents.

Chemical reactions are more likely to happen when electrons are in the lowest possible energy level because the lower energy level then possibilty of it chemical reaction.

Without sodium potassium pumps, what could happen to cells

WITCHER [35]

Answers. Sodium/potassium pumps (Na/K ATPase) pump 3 Na out of the cell and 2 K into the cell. Without that, there would be relatively more ions in the cell. Therefore, the cell would swell up from osmosis. However, there is a basal efflux of K, (resting membrane potential), that would eventually equilibrate with the extracellular concentration.

Classify the enzyme inhibitors by giving the names, mechanisms, and effect on the kinetic parameters Km and Vmax.

V125BC [204]

Enzyme inhibitors are either competitive, uncompetitive or non-competitive inhibitors and have different effects on Km and Vmax.

<h3>What are enzyme inhibitors?</h3>

Enzyme inhibitors are substances which inhibit the catalytic activity of enzymes.

Enzyme inhibitors are classified into three:

Competitive inhibitors - compete with substrate for enzyme binding site. They have no effect on Vmax but increases Km.
Uncompetitive inhibitors- bind to the enzyme–substrate complex. They decrease both Vmax and Km.
Non-competitive inhibitors- bind to another site on the enzyme. They have no effect on Km but Vmax is decreased.

Therefore, the enzyme inhibitors are either competitive, uncompetitive or non-competitive inhibitors and have different effects on Km and Vmax.

Where does natural variation in a population come from? *

slavikrds [6]

Explanation:

Genetic variation can be caused by mutation (which can create entirely new alleles in a population), random mating, random fertilization, and recombination between homologous chromosomes during meiosis (which reshuffles alleles within an organism's offspring).
