BIOL 1105 Lecture Notes - Lecture 7: Atp Hydrolysis, Reaction Rate, Endergonic Reaction
Document Summary
Upon completion of this activity, the student should be able to: Determine whether a chemical reaction will proceed spontaneously. (7. 4) Discuss factors that affect enzymatic activity. (7. 8) Interpret a biochemical pathway and predict the outcome of a malfunction in a biochemical pathway. (7. 10) Relate the malfunction of biochemical pathways to human illness. (7. 10) Apply scientific reasoning to biological problems. (s1) Work in teams of four to answer the questions below. Bold the correct answer from multiple choice questions. Be sure to list all team members" names on this sheet! Part 1: enzymes and activation energy: answer the following questions about the chemical reaction shown below: This reaction has a g value of +7. 6 kcal/mol. It is not spontaneous, because it is endergonic. The positive g tells that it is endergonic: atp hydrolysis has a g value of -7. 3 kcal/mol. Would coupling atp hydrolysis to the above reaction drive the reaction? (1pt)
