  • For an enzyme to catalyze a chemical reaction it is very essential for the correct substrate to bind to the active site of the enzyme.
  • The active site is divided into two portions :
  1. Binding site
  2. Catalytic site
  • The binding site is made up of amino acid residues that are responsible for binding to the correct substrate while the catalytic site possesses the amino acids that lead to the catalysis.
  • The shape of the active site is such that only the correct substrate binds to it easily and hence, the catalytic reaction takes place.

20. What condition is required for ATP synthase to move hydrogen down its gradient? A. More ATP molecules ahead of the hydrogen
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

This H+ ion gradient is referred to as a proton motive force. It is  created using energy from the Krebs cycle in the matrix of the mitochondria. As electrons are passed from one protein complex to another, reducing molecules such as NADH and FADH2, the protons are pumped to the intermembrane space of the mitochondria. ATP synthase uses this potential to generate ATP as the H+ ions move downgradient (back to the matrix) through channels in the protein enzyme.

Imagine a postsynaptic neuron is experiencing multiple simultaneous incoming synaptic potentials, which were caused by the activ
SashulF [63]

Answer:

The neuron will not fire an action potential.

Explanation:

The missing magnitudes of the synaptic potentials when they reach the postsynaptic cell's axon hillock are:

A. excitatory +7

B. excitatory +10

C. inhibitory -3

D. excitatory +2

E. inhibitory -4

To fire the action potential, the summation of excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSP) and inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (IPSP) must reach the action potential threshold, which in this case is 15mV more positive than the resting potential.

The EPSP are: +7 +10 +2= +19

The IPSP are: -3 - 4= -7

EPSP + IPSP=

+19 -7 = +12 mV

The neuron will not fire an action potential since the integration of EPSP and IPSP is below 15mv.

<h2><u>Answer</u> : </h2>

Proteins are basic nutrients comprising biomolecules, which are made up of long chains of Amino acids.

They have various functions in our body :

  • they make up our hair, nails, bones etc

  • they helps in recovery of damaged tissues (therefore known as body - building food)

  • the structure and functions of protein depends on base sequence of nucleotides in the DNA coding for that specific protein.
