What happens when a suitable substrate binds to an enzyme? - ANSWER-The active site amino acids bond with the substrate Cyanide binds to cytochrome oxidase at a site where the substrate oxygen would normally bind. This is an example of - ANSWER-competitive inhibition an example of a catabolic reaction is - ANSWER-lactate fermentation what is an anabolic process that is endergonic and endothermic? - ANSWER-CH₄ +2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O ATP yields 7.3 kcal/mol of free energy and it i...

KSU Bio 198 Exam 6 Questions and Answers Already Passed The ______ photosynthetic pathway is where carbon dioxide is fixed by RUBISCO into sugars via the Calvin Cycle. It uses ATP, photorespiration is minimized, and it increases the rate of photosynthesis. C4 In the ______ photosynthetic pathway, carbon dioxide is fixed by RUBISCO into sugars via the Calvin Cycle (just like in C4). C3 The _____ photosynthetic pathway separates light-dependent reactions and uses carbon dioxide and...

MTTC Integrated Science - Life Sciences Part 1 Questions And Answers Light Independent Reactions Use ATP and NADPH (from the light-dependent reactions) plus CO2 to produce carbohydrate sugars photorespiration a wasteful process that uses energy and decreases sugar synthesis that occurs in plants during photosynthesis. It occurs when the enzyme rubisco binds to oxygen instead of atmospheric CO2. How do C4 plants minimize photorespiration? The light reactions and the Calvin cycle occu...

Who uses photosynthesis? - ANSWER autotrophs Where does photosynthesis occur? - ANSWER chloroplasts chemosyntheis - ANSWER used by prokaryotic autotrophs as an inorganic chemical reaction to produce energy heterotrophs - ANSWER require food and use cellular respiration to release energy from chemical bonds in the food who uses cellular respiration to release energy from stored food? - ANSWER all organisms light capturing events - ANSWER The first stage in photosynthesis; thylakoid...
