Some statements are true and some are false. If true explain why they are true .

Question

Some statements are true and some are false. If true explain why they are true . Change all false statements to make them true s) some or these statements are true and some are false. If true, explain why they are true. Change all false statements to make them true. Enzymes are classified on the basis of the types of reactions they catalyze. In the presence of an appropriate enzyme, the free energy required to reach the transition state (activation energy) of a chemical reaction is deceased. When a given amount of enzyme is saturated, an increase in substrate concentration will increase the initial rate of the reaction. The initial rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction is increased if the concentration of the ES complex is increased. The KM of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction is independent of the substrate used. Given the KM and Vmax at a specified enzyme concentration, we can calculate the initial rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction for any particular substrate concentration

Explanation / Answer

a)

True, enzymes will be classified according to their types

b)

True, the transition state is decreased, therefore, requires less "energy" and reaction becomes possible/faster

c)

False, since the enzymes are saturated, they do not hav eneough free sites to continue reactions

d)

True, if not saturated

e)

False, it is dependent on the enzyme... but will not depend on concentration of the enzyme itself

f)

True, using either Michaelis menten or Lineweaver equations/plots
