The energy for an endergonic reaction comes from a(n) _____ reaction.

Exergonic

What is the fate of the phosphate group that is removed when ATP is converted to ADP?

It is acquired by a reactant in an endergonic reaction.

This graph illustrates a(n) _____ reaction.

This graph illustrates a(n) _____ reaction.

Endergonic

Select the INCORRECT association.

Exergonic ... uphill

What is energy coupling?

The use of energy released from an exergonic reaction to drive an endergonic reaction

Which of these is ATP?



What type of reaction breaks the bonds that join the phosphate groups in an ATP molecule?

Terms



In general, enzymes are what kinds of molecules?

Proteins

Enzymes work by _____.

Reducing Eª

An enzyme _____.

Is an organic catalyst

What name is given to the reactants in an enzymatically catalyzed reaction?

Substrate

As a result of its involvement in a reaction, an enzyme _____.

Is unchanged

Energy of activation

Which of the following statements is most likely to be true in the case of the feedback-regulated enzymatic pathway shown?

Which of the following statements is most likely to be true in the case of the feedback-regulated enzymatic pathway shown?

P4 binds E1 and deactivates it.

In which region does the reaction rate remain constant?

In which region does the reaction rate remain constant?

Region C

In which region is the enzyme saturated with substrate?

In which region is the enzyme saturated with substrate?

Region C

Consider a situation in which the enzyme is operating at optimum temperature and pH, and has been saturated with substrate. What is your best option for increasing the rate of the reaction?

Increase the enzyme concentration.

Terms #02

You have added an irreversible inhibitor to a sample of enzyme and substrate. At this point, the reaction has stopped completely. What can you do to regain the activity of the enzyme?

The enzyme is inactive at this point. New enzyme must be added to regain enzyme activity.

You have an enzymatic reaction proceeding at the optimum pH and optimum temperature. You add a competitive inhibitor to the reaction and notice that the reaction slows down. What can you do to speed the reaction up again?

Add more substrate; it will outcompete the inhibitor and increase the reaction rate.
