Question
(3 of 18) Using the data shown in the graph below determine which statement is correct. 100 50- 0 Kd Kd 10 L] (uM) The protein shown in binding curve B has a greater affinity for it's ligand as compared to the protein sho in binding curve A. If the [L] were 1 uM the percent saturation of A would be greater than B The percent saturation of A is expected to be greater than B at all [L]. B has a lower affinity for its ligand, relative to A, and is therefore never expected to reach 100% saturatio If [L] were to double it is expected that Ywould also double at all points along the curve.

Explanation / Answer
ans 3: option B : with the [L]= 1 micrometer, the saturation percent of A is greater than B
ans 4: option a i.e. for the transition to occur, an a driving force is used i.e. enthalpy so the enthalipic cost must be paid.
ans 5 : replacement of the gamma subunit with beta ubunit decrease the affinity as the hemoglobin binds with the gamma subunit more tightly.
