Can you please answer questions 1 & 2 (ignore answer selected).
Question 1 (2 points) Which of the following is NOT consistent with our understanding of "induced fit", or cannot be a consequence of induced fit: A) A. both enzyme and substrate conformations change during E-S formation B) the rate of the chemical steps of catalysis is faster because of better alignment of reactive substrate and enzyme groups C) the substrate captures a pre-existing enzyme conformer that is only weakly populated D) water molecules become excluded from the enzyme surface that binds substrate E) the substrate induces an enzyme conformational change that reduces the free energy of the product Save Question 2 (2 points) Choose the best answer. Enzymes are potent catalysts because they: A) are not consumed in the reactions they catalyze B) can prevent the conversion of products back to substrates C) drive reactions to completion while other catalysts drive reactions to equilibrium D) do not bind substrates more tightly than needed, given cellular concentrations E) optimize complementarity to substrate via hydrogen bonds and other interactionsExplanation / Answer
1. Option D The water molecules become excluded from tje enzyme surface that binds substrate.
2.Option A. Enzymes are like catalysts , they are not consumed in the reaction.
