Explain why a lock and key are used to describe the way in which an enzyme works. Describe any ways in which the

LiRa [457]

The lock an key analogy is used because each enzyme has specific substrates that fit into it. This is like how locks only work with a specific key. The enzyme is the lock and the substrates are the key.
2
This analogy is not perfect because there are often multiple substrates for each enzyme reaction. It only takes one key to turn the lock. The reaction is also taking place between the substrates themselves and not the enzyme. In the lock and key analogy, the lock is affected by the key, but in an enzyme reaction, the substrates are affected by the enzyme.

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

The correct answer is "cell lysis due to the effect of osmotic pressure".

Explanation:

The cell wall is a structure that brings protection from the outside world and also helps to maintain the cell's water balance. The cell wall prevents that the cells is exposed to a large amount of turgor pressure, making the cell turgid when it is under extremal conditions. Some antimicrobials, such as bacitracin, block cell wall synthesis which makes the cell unable to support turgor pressure, resulting in cell lysis due to the effect of osmotic pressure.

if a cell increases the activity of its actin severing proteins, will it lead in the short term to more or less actin polymer ma

marta [7]

More polymer will form if the concentration of free actin monomers is higher than the Cc at both the plus and minus ends.

Less polymer will form if the concentration of free actin monomers is lower than the Cc at both the plus and minus ends.

Actin polymerization encourages FAK and Src to activate small G proteins by signalling to GEFs and GTPases (e.g., Rho and Rac). The actomyosin network is then forced to develop as a result of G proteins' induction of cytoskeleton-regulating proteins.

What stops cells from forming actin polymers?

Actin monomer is sequestered by monomer-binding proteins, reducing its availability for polymerization. As a result, actin does not polymerize when monomer-binding proteins are present in stoichiometric levels.

Q. If a cell increases the activity of its actin severing proteins, will it lead in the short term to MORE or LESS actin polymer mass? Chose the most accurate answer.

Increased severing activity will result in LESS polymer under any conditions.

Increased severing activity will result in NO CHANGE in the total amount of polymer under any conditions. It simply results in a larger number of smaller filaments.

Increased severing activity will result in MORE polymer under any conditions.

If the concentration of free actin monomers is below the Cc for both the plus and minus ends, then MORE polymer will result. If the concentration of free actin monomers is above the Cc for both the plus and minus ends, then LESS polymer will result.

If the concentration of free actin monomers is above the Cc for both the plus and minus ends, then MORE polymer will result. If the concentration of free actin monomers is below the Cc for both the plus and minus ends, then LESS polymer will result.
