The digestive enzymes that work in the mouth, stomach, and throughout the digestive system are proteins, like all enzymes. How do our bodies make these proteins?

Penicillin is hydrolyzed and thereby rendered inactive by penicillinase (also known as β-lactamase), an enzyme present in some resistant bacteria. the mass of this enzyme in staphylococcus aureus is 29.6 kd. the amount of penicillin hydrolyzed in 1 minute in a 10-ml solution containing 10-9 g of purified penicillinase was measured as a function of the concentration of penicillin. assume that the concentration of penicillin does not change appreciably during the assay. penicillin(μm) amount hydrolyzed(nmol) 1 0.11 3 0.25 5 0.34 10 0.45 30 0.58 50 0.61 (a) plot v0 versus [s] and 1/v0 versus 1/[s] for these data. does penicillinase appear to obey michaelis-menten kinetics? if so, what is the value of km? (b) what is the value of vmax? (c) what is the turnover number of penicillinase under these experimental conditions? assume one active site per enzyme molecule.

What are the coordinates of vertex a of square abcd? a (–1, –6) b (–1, –2) c (–1, 6) d (–2, 1)

Unlike mendel's pea plants,humans can have a variety of heights,not just tall or short.what does this mean for human height? a.height is controlled by one gene b.height is controlled by more than one c.height is not genetic d.height is solely determined by whether or not you eat your vegetables
