Which of the following roles does an enzyme play when the body processes sucrose (table sugar) into glucose and fructose?

• An enzyme decreases the body’s need for sucrose.

• An enzyme increases the amount of sucrose available.

• An enzyme increases the rate at which the sucrose breaks down.

• An enzyme decreases the amount of fructose and glucose product available.

As cells grow and increase in size, enzymes become more important to the survival of the cell. Which best explains why enzymes are necessary?

• Enzymes supply the oxygen necessary for the reactions.

• Enzymes change reactants from solid to liquid during the reactions.

• The reactions take up too much space in the cell if enzymes are missing.

• The reactions are too slow to meet the needs of the cell if enzymes are missing.

Students were asked to draw a model of a mitochondrion. The diagrams below represent two students’ drawings. Which model best represents a mitochondrion and why?

• Structure 1 has more surface area, which produces more proteins.

• Structure 1 has more surface area, which produces more energy.

• Structure 2 has more surface area, which produces more proteins.

• Structure 2 has more surface area, which produces more energy.
