Steele HS Biology Midterm 2023 Review #3

In the Enzyme-Substrate Complex, What is represented by Y?

• enzyme

• substrate

• active site

• product

Catalase is an enzyme that speeds up the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. Students conducted two investigations to determine the ideal conditions for the function of catalase. One investigation compared catalase activity at different values of pH. The other investigation compared catalase activity at different temperatures.

...

 

According to the data in the chart, which pH and temperature combination provides the best conditions for catalase to function?

• pH of 7 and a temperature of 50°C

• pH of 5 and a temperature of 4°C

• pH of 5 and a temperature of 25°C

• pH of 7 and a temperature of 37°C

Fireflies emit light. The production of light by an organism is called bioluminescence. To generate visible light, cells in a firefly's tail produce thousands of luciferase enzymes. Luciferase binds to a chemical called luciferin. Once bound, the luciferase enzyme speeds up a chemical that combines an oxygen molecule and luciferin to produce oxyluciferin. This reaction requires energy and releases light.

 

Which of the following best describes how the luciferase enzyme speeds up the chemical reaction?

• Luciferase increases the amount of time the light is visible.

• Luciferase decreases the amount of energy required for the reaction to start.

• Luciferase increases the number of sites on luciferin that must bind to oxygen.

• Luciferase decreases the temperature of the environment inside the body of the firefly.
