What is the benefit of substrate channeling? The PDH active site forms in the hydrophobic core of the complex instead of a surfa

ce‑exposed region. Reaction intermediates move to sequential active sites faster than the diffusion constant. Every intermediate or product made by the PDH complex enters the citric acid cycle as a substrate. The PDH complex sequesters excess substrate to use at later time. Intermediates of a multistep reaction sequence do not dissociate from the enzyme complex.

Answer:

Intermediates of a multistep reaction sequence do not dissociate from the enzyme complex.

Explanation:

Substrate channeling is the process in which intermediates produced in an enzymatic reaction is transferred to another enzyme or active in a reaction pathway without the substrate having to dissociate from the enzymes active sites into the reaction medium or solution.

Benefits of substrate channeling include:

  • intermediates of a multistep reaction sequence do not diffuse away from the catalytic sites of enzymes in the pathway thereby ensuring that their concentration remains high
  • there is  greater control of the flow metabolites in the pathway
  • other competing enzymes for a common substrate do not make use of the substrates
  • increased efficiency of the catalytic process

Substrate channeling is observed in the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex reaction which oxidizes pyruvate to acetyl-CoA.

How many electrons would be found in the Ion who’s symbol is I-
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

54

Explanation:

Given symbol of the element:

                   I⁻

Number of electrons found in an ion with the symbol:

  This is a iodine ion:

         For an atom of iodine:

                   Electrons  = 53

                   Protons  = 53

                   Neutrons  = 74

An ion of iodine is one that has lost or gained electrons.

For this one, we have a negatively charged ion which implies that the number of electrons is 1 more than that of the protons.

  So, number of electrons  = 53 + 1  = 54

The number of electrons in this ion is 54

inysia [295]

Answer:

Answers are C, D

Explanation:

Solid particles always stick together no matter what happens unless it is changing into a liquid. If you are talking about vibration for solid particles that only applies to thermal vibratio so not A. They do not slide past each other because they are packed very tightly together. They have a definite shape and volume because they stay together unless facing heat. Hopefully this helps you :)

pls mark brainlest ;)

The boiling point of another member of this homologous series was found to be 309 k. What is the likely molecular formula for th
Sati [7]

Answer:

C5H12

Explanation:

In organic chemistry the boiling point of 309 k is of fifth member of alkane series which Pentane whose molecular mass is 72 g/mol.  Thus, we can say that the  molecular formula of the compound which has boiling point 309 K is C5H12.

Hello! Id like if someone could tell me this answer, thank you so much!
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Option D. ZnCl₂ and H₂

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following equation was obtained:

2HCl + Zn —> ZnCl₂ + H₂

Products =?

In a chemical equation, reactants are located on the left side while products are located on the right side i.e

Reactants —> Products

Now, considering the equation from the question i.e

2HCl + Zn —> ZnCl₂ + H₂

The products are ZnCl₂ and H₂ because from our discussion above, we said that products are only located on the right side of chemical equation.

Thus, option D gives the correct answer to the question.

How is light energy converted to chemical energy?
ipn [44]

Answer:

Photosynthesis is the process in which light energy is converted to chemical energy in the form of sugars. In a process driven by light energy, glucose molecules (or other sugars) are constructed from water and carbon dioxide, and oxygen is released as a byproduct.
