Answer:
Most of free energy available from oxidation of the glucose remains in pyruvate.
Explanation:
The overall reaction of the process glycolysis is:
Glucose + 2 NAD⁺ + 2 ADP + 2 Pi ⇒ 2 Pyruvate + 2 NADH + 2 H⁺ + 2ATP
Glucose is oxidized to give 2 molecules of pyruvate and 2 molecules of NADH and ATP (Energy currency).
<u>Though the free energy of oxidation of glucose is high but only 2 NADH is formed because the most of the free energy that is being released from the oxidation of glucose remains in the pyruvate which is produced in the reaction and thus only 2 molecules are formed.</u>
Answer:
90.2%
Explanation:
% yield = actual yield/ theoretical yield * 100%
% yield = (312/346)*100% = 90.2%
Given what we know, we can confirm that if further increases in substrate concentration do not result in further increases in reaction rate, then an enzyme is likely saturated.
<h3>What does it mean for an enzyme to be saturated?</h3>
Enzymes work by binding to the substrate in specific zones of the enzyme. The zones are known as the active sites on enzymes. Since enzymes have a limited amount of these zones, once they are all bonded to a substrate, we can say that it is saturated.
Therefore, the saturation of enzymes allows us to explain how further increases in substrate concentration do not result in further increases in reaction rate.
