Enzyme Concentration Quiz

What is the effect of increasing enzyme concentration on the rate of reaction?

• The rate of reaction increases.

• The rate of reaction decreases.

• The rate of reaction becomes unpredictable.

• The rate of reaction remains constant.

How does enzyme concentration affect the number of enzyme-substrate complexes formed?

• More enzyme concentration leads to more enzyme-substrate complexes formed.

• Enzyme concentration has no effect on the number of enzyme-substrate complexes formed.

• Less enzyme concentration leads to more enzyme-substrate complexes formed.

• Enzyme concentration decreases the number of enzyme-substrate complexes formed.

Explain the concept of enzyme saturation in relation to enzyme concentration.

• Enzyme saturation is reached when all enzyme active sites are filled with substrate molecules, and further increasing enzyme concentration does not enhance the reaction rate.

• Increasing enzyme concentration always leads to higher reaction rates.

• Enzyme saturation is a term used when enzymes are inactive due to low concentration.

• Enzyme saturation occurs when enzyme concentration is low and reaction rate is at its peak.

Why is it important to maintain optimal enzyme concentration in industrial processes?

• To ensure efficient conversion of substrates to products and increase productivity and cost-effectiveness.

• To increase costs and decrease efficiency

• To slow down the conversion process and reduce productivity

• To introduce variability in the final product and reduce quality

How does enzyme concentration influence the efficiency of enzyme-catalyzed reactions?

• Enzyme concentration has no impact on enzyme-catalyzed reactions

• Enzyme concentration only affects the color of the reaction

• Higher enzyme concentration slows down the reaction rate

• Enzyme concentration influences the efficiency of enzyme-catalyzed reactions by affecting the rate of the reaction.

What is the enzyme required to catalyse the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide?

• Hydrogenase

• Catalase

• Oxidase

• Hydrolase
