Question

Which of the following statements best describes the thermodynamic reason why vitamin K1 binds noncovalently to carrier proteins to travel through the bloodstream? 9. A. B. C. D. Transport of vitamin K1 without a carrier protein would decrease the entropy of the transport process, which would make transport exergonic. Transport of vitamin K1 without a carrier protein would increase the entropy of the transport process, which would make transport exergonic. Transport of vitamin K1 without a carrier protein would decrease the entropy of the transport process, which would make transport endergonic. Transport of vitamin K1 without a carrier protein would increase the entropy of the transport process, which would make transport endergonic. 10. What types of noncovalent interactions would likely occur between vitamin K1 and a carrier protein? A. lonic interactions, hydrogen bonds, and van der Waals interactions B. lonic interactions and hydrogen bonds C. lonic interactions and van der Waals interactions D. Hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions

Explanation / Answer

9-Option c is correct because it utilise the energy of vitamin KH2 oxidation so it is endergonic and in endergonic, entropy is decreased.

10- option c is correct because carrier protein transport ions by ionic interaction.
