Hello everyone! I hope you have an amazing rest of your week. I have attached a screenshot that I hope will allow you to answer my question. Please only answer if you are positive that you are correct.

Thank you

a) true

b) false

c) true

d) false

e) false

Explanation:

hi im taking ap biology and it's not my best subject but here r my reasonings:

a) inhibitors decrease the rate of reactions in general, so i would assume that increasing the number of inhibitors would decrease the overall rate or reaction

b) it's false bc allosteric inhibitors bind to a place on the enzyme other than the active site. u can see on the figures that the blue-green allosteric inhibitor is in a place other than the active site at the top

c) because allosteric inhibitors bind to a different place on the enzyme, this often results in an formational change in the enzyme. bc of this change in shape of the enzyme, this can rly prevent the substrate from binding to the active site

d) i dont think adding a competitive inhibitor will increase the number of products bc competitive inhibitors decrease the reaction rate by blocking substrates from binding to the active site :/

e) false bc competitive inhibitors do not bind to the substrates; they bind to the active sites, thus blocking the substrate from entering the active site. u can see this in the blue-green square at the top figures

no i don't feel that humans have oversubscribed some medications

you need more balloons
