The combined mass of rock 1 and 2 = 19.28 + 25.3
= 44.58
Difference between rock 3 and combined rocks
= 46.3 - 44.58
= 1.72 grams
therefore, the third rock was 1.72 grams greater than the combined mass of the other two rocks.
Answer:
A. converting chemical energy into a food.
This process is known as phosphorylation. Glucose can be converted into Glucose-6-phosphate by the addition of the phosphate group from ATP. ATP serves as the biological energy company, releasing energy for both anabolic and catabolic processes and being recharged by energy generated from other catabolic reactions.
Heroin, Oxycodone, Oxymorphone, Hydromorphone.
These are some.
Answer:
C. The enzyme with mutation 1 has decreased affinity for pyridoxal phosphate, whereas the enzyme with mutation 2 has lost the ability to bind to the substrates.
Explanation:
A coenzyme is an organic cofactor that binds with an enzyme in order to initiate or aid the function of the enzyme. A coenzyme binds to the active site of the enzyme (where the reaction occurs), thereby triggering its activation by modifying protein structure during the reaction. Some examples of coenzymes include Coenzyme A and Adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Pyridoxal phosphate is a coenzyme (it is the active form of vitamin B6) that is required for the function of cystathionase. Moreover, cystathionase is an enzyme that enables cells the synthesis of cysteine from methionine (transsulfuration pathway). The binding of pyridoxal phosphate to the enzyme increases the binding affinity of the enzyme for the substrate, thereby influencing its activity. In this case, it is expected that mutation 1 reduces the binding affinity of the enzyme to the cofactor, and thereby the cofactor is required at a higher concentration to restore normal enzyme activity.
