(7) when the enzyme and substrate are first mixed together, there are many substrate molecules. both enzyme and substrate molecules are in constant motion and collide. the higher the blood pressure, No cloze 2 found on card. Please substrate molecules bind to the the faster the blood flows. either add a cloze deletion, or use active site of the enzyme pressure and speed fall as the the Empty Cards tool. molecules. in a successful distance from the heart increases. More information collision, substrate is broken down and products are released. more active sites become filled with substrate molecules. the rate of the reaction depends on the number of free active sites, if all other condiitons are optimal and there's excess substrate. the enzyme concentration is the limiting factor because it controls the rate of the reaction. as the reaction proceeds, there's less substrate and more product. the enzyme concentration is constant. the substrate concentration is the limiting factor because it controls the rate of the reaction. eventually all of the substrate has been used and no more product can be formed so the line plateaus. where is DNA in eukaryotes and prokaryotes? eukaryotes - enclosed in the 1 mm to μm 1 μm to nm nucleus. 1000 μm 1000 nm prokaryotes - loose in the cytoplasm. 10 features of protoctista 10 features of plantae eukaryotic. eukaryotic. single-celled or multicellular. 2 advantages of eukaryotic cells multicellular. have nucleus. have nucleus. have mitochondria. harmful chemicals (like have mitochondria. some have chloroplasts. enzymes) are isolated. have chloroplasts. 80S ribosomes. substances with particular 80S ribosomes. have ER. functions (like chlorophyll) have ER. some have vacuoles. can be concentrated in one large permanent vacuole. some have cellulose cell area. cellulose cell wall. walls. autotrophic nutrition. autotrophic or heterotrophic nutrition. 2 anaerobic pathways to remove 2 anaerobic pathways to remove the hydrogen from NADred: the hydrogen from NADred: in animals, muscle cells may in animals, muscle cells may not get sufficient oxygen not get sufficient oxygen during vigorous exercise. during vigorous exercise. when deprived of oxygen, when deprived of oxygen, pyruvate is the hydrogen pyruvate is the hydrogen acceptor and is converted to acceptor and is converted to lactate, regenerating NAD. if lactate, regenerating NAD. if oxygen subsequently oxygen subsequently becomes available, the becomes available, the lactate can be respired to lactate can be respired to carbon dioxide and water, carbon dioxide and water, releasing the energy it releasing the energy it contains. contains. in various micro-organisms in various micro-organisms and in plant cells under and in plant cells under certain conditions, pyruvate certain conditions, pyruvate is converted to carbon is converted to carbon dioxide and to ethanal, a dioxide and to ethanal, a hydrogen acceptor, by hydrogen acceptor, by decarboxylase. ethanal is decarboxylase. ethanal is 2 components of chromosomes reduced to ethanol and NAD reduced to ethanol and NAD is regenerated, in alcoholic is regenerated, in alcoholic DNA. fermentation. this pathway is fermentation. this pathway is protein called histone. not reversible, so even if not reversible, so even if oxygen becomes available oxygen becomes available again, ethanol is not broken again, ethanol is not broken down. it accumulates in the down. it accumulates in the cells and can rise to toxic cells and can rise to toxic concentrations. concentrations. 2 examples of anatomical traits 2 differences between meiosis II and mitosis sharks, dolphins and 2 different polymers of alpha- penguins have streamlined in meiosis II: glucose molecules that constitute bodies -

the efficient. sequence of bases represents the information carried in DNA and determines the sequence of amino acids in proteins. 2 significant types of reaction in the Krebs cycle (4) there are 2 significant types of reaction: decarboxylation - occurs twice. decarboxylases remove carbon dioxide from the -COOH groups of Krebs cycle intermediates. 6C acid -> 5C acid -> 4C acid. dehydrogenation - occurs 4 times. dehydrogenases remove pairs of hydrogen atoms from Krebs cycle intermediates. they're collected by hydrogen carriers giving 3 molecules of NADred and one molecule of FADred. the acetate group from the 2 stages of atrial systole original glucose molecule is entirely broken down to carbon 1. the atrium walls contract, 2 stages of negative pressure dioxide and water. the energy in increasing the blood breathing the bonds of the glucose molecule pressure in the atria. is carried by electrons in the 2. this pushes the blood hydrogen atoms in the through the tricuspid and inspiration.

more water is produced. this metabolic water is very important for desert animals and explains why they respire fat. 3 things that can happen if the genes that control the cell cycle 3 things that can denature are damaged 3 things that can mutate DNA enzymes cells may fail to divide. radiation. high temperatures. cells may divide too some chemicals. extremes of pH. frequently. some viruses. organic solvents. cells may divide at the wrong time. 3 things that gastric juice contains peptidases -

ATP provides a common source of energy for many different chemical reactions, increasing efficiency and control by the cell. 4 changes in prophase 1. the chromosomes condense. 2. the centriole pairs separate and move to the opposite ends of the cell. 3. protein microtubules form, radiating from each centriole, making the 4 features of carnivorous mammal spindle. spindle fibres extend teeth 4 features that specialised from pole to pole and from respiratory surfaces need for gas pole to the centromere of the sharp incisors -
