Penicillin is hydrolyzed and thereby rendered inactive by penicillinase (also known as b-lactamase), an enzyme present in some p

enicillin- resistant bacteria. the mass of this enzyme in staphylococcus aureus is 29.6 kd. the amount of penicillin hydrolyzed in 1 minute in a 10-ml solution containing 1029 g of purified penicillinase was measured as a function of the concentration of penicillin. assume that the concentration of penicillin does not change appreciably during the assay.

Answer:

5.22 mM.

Explanation:

using y=mx+c equation

y =7.6225x + 1.4602

so, when x = 0

x = 1 ÷ Vmax = 1.4602.

Vmax = 1 ÷ 1.4602 = 0.68.

Thus, Vmax  is 0.68.

Y = 7.6225X + 1.4602

so, when y = 0

x = 1 ÷ Km = 5.22.

Answer:

The answer is 5.22 mM.

Explanation:

The calculation of Vmax and Km is as follows:

y =7.6225x + 1.4602

so, when x = 0

x = 1 ÷ Vmax = 1.4602.

Vmax = 1 ÷ 1.4602 = 0.68.

Thus, Vmax of the enzyme is 0.68.

The calculation of (km) is as follows:

Y = 7.6225X + 1.4602

so, when y = 0

x = 1 ÷ Km = 5.22.

For which of the following problems would a crop rotation of various grains and legumes be an appropriate solution?
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

I and III only

Explanation:

Crop rotation is a farm practice that involves cultivating different species of crops on the same land at different seasons. In other words, the different crops are rotated. Crop rotation is done for various reasons including; improvement of soil fertility, pest and disease control etc.

In this case, a crop rotation of various grains and legumes would be an appropriate solution for the following problems:

- The nutrients in the soil on a farm are being depleted: Legumes are known to be rich in nitrogen and hence add nitrogen to the soil due to the nitrogen-fixing microbes in their roots. Hence, rotating between grains and legumes can help return the depleted nutrients (by grains) to the soil.

- A particular kind of pest is infesting the soil on a farm: Most pests are usually crop-specific, hence, planting only one type of crop can make that soil be infested with a particular kind of pest. However, rotating between crops such as grains and legumes can make a particular pests become scarce or less populated.

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

Land able to be used for farming is called "cultivable land". Farmland, meanwhile, is used variously in reference to all agricultural land, to all cultivable land, or just to the newly restricted sense of "arable land".

Hope this helps! : )

What is the role of a fungus’s fruiting body?
Andrews [41]

The answer is a production of spores which are used for reproduction. 


<span>In fungi, the fruiting body contains spores, which are the fungi's reproduction units. Spores are released by wind, rain, or animals. Once they land on an adequate surface they grow into hyphae, and eventually form a mycelium. The mycelium can later develop into the fruiting body and, thus, the cycle is repeated.</span>

Symbiosis and metabolic cooperation.

Explanation:

Symbiosis is a term called for bacteria that live in symbiosis with another organism or with each other, as we can see here there is a tow bacteria living in the same place (gut), one attached to the surface of the gut and another one synthesize ATP which can be used by other bacteria which made both of them benefits from a metabolic reaction that made by one bacteria.
