The function of an enzyme in a biochemical reaction is to -

• raise the temperature of the system

• speed up the rate of the reaction

• increase the amount of substrate added

• change the type of product formed

For an enzyme to be able to catalyze a reaction, the active site must-

• be occupied by an inhibitor

• increase the activation energy level

• have a complementary shape to the substrate

• cause the enzyme to be destroyed in the reaction

• F

• G

• H

• J

• The substrates will bind together to form a product, and the enzyme will be unchanged

• The substrates will bind together to form a product, and the enzyme will be denatured

• The enzymes and substrates will all bind together to form one product

• The enzyme will become the product and both substrates will be released

One way in which genetically modified mice are developed is by injecting the gene sequence for green fluorescent protein (GFP) into a mouse embryo at a very early stage of development. The injection typically contains genetic material and a biomolecule that catalyzes the reaction. Which statement BEST classifies the biomolecules responsible for the development of these genetically modified mice?

• Lipids are responsible for carrying the genetic material and carbohydrates are responsible for catalyzing the reaction

• Carbohydrates are responsible for carrying the genetic material and nucleic acids are responsible for catalyzing the reaction

• Proteins are responsible for carrying the genetic material and lipids are responsible for catalyzing the reaction

• Nucleic Acids are responsible for carrying genetic material and proteins are responsible for catalyzing the reaction
