Answer:
it illustrated natural selection because the most favorable traits live longer than the unfavorable traits.
Explanation:
Algae because it is a small organism that the larva state of animals live in and feed on it
D
Since diabetics cannot produce insulin properly, in the diagram, the step “Pancreas releases insulin” wouldn’t happen and because of that, diabetics would not be able to uptake glucose or form lipids/glycogen.
Answer:
a) k_m = 4.08 uM
V_{max} = 20.07 uM/min
b) k_m = 8.16 uM
Explanation:
Given that:
For Enzyme A:
the substrate concentration [S] = 40 uM
the initial velocity rate v = 10 uM/min
when it was 4mM, v = 20 uM/min
i.e.
at 4mM = 4000 uM;
Using Michealis -menten equation;
when v = 10
![V = \dfrac{V_{max}[S]}{k_m+[S]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=V%20%3D%20%5Cdfrac%7BV_%7Bmax%7D%5BS%5D%7D%7Bk_m%2B%5BS%5D%7D)
∴



when v= 20



equating equation (1) and (2):


let multiply equation (1) by 100 and equation (2) by 1
4000V_{max} - 1000K_m = 4000
<u>4000V_{max} - 20 k_m = 8000 </u>
0 -980k_m = 4000
k_m = 4000/-980
k_m = 4.08 uM
replacing the value of k_m into equation (1)
40{V_max } - 10(4.08) = 400
40{V_max } - 40.8 = 400
40{V_max } = 400 + 40.8
40{V_max } = 440.8
V_{max} = 440.8/40
V_{max} = 11.02 uM/min
b)
Since V_{max} of A ie equivalent to that of B; then:
V_{max} of B = 11.02 uM/min
Here;
[S] = 80 uM
V = 10 uM/min
∴

10(k_m +80) = 881.6
10k_m = 881.6 - 800
10k_m = 81.6
k_m = 81.6/10
k_m = 8.16 uM
