Q. No.Enzymes are biocatalysts. They catalyse biochemical reactions. In general they reduce activation energy of reactions. Many physic-chemical processes are enzyme mediated. Some examples of enzyme mediated reactions are given below. Tick the wrong entry
1. Dissolving CO2 in water
2. Untwining the two strands of DNA
3. Hydrolysis of sucrose
4. Formation of peptide bond

Which of the following is the best evidence for the 'Lock-and-key model' of enzyme action?
1. all isolated enzymes have been identified as proteins
2. compounds similar in structure to the substrate inhibit the reaction
3. enzymes are found in living organisms and speed up certain reactions
4. enzymes determine the direction of reaction

Given below is a schematic metabolic pathway. In an experiment, the concentration of enzyme 1 was increased but the concentration of enzymes 2 and 3 were kept constant. What would happen to the rate of production of D?
1. it would go down
2. it would go up
3. it would stay the same
4. it would stop
The graph shown below shows the effect of a certain factor on the rate of a reaction catalyzed by an enzyme. The X-axis would show the said factor and that will be:
| 1. substrate concentration | 2. pH |
| 3. enzyme concentration | 4. temperature |

In the following graph, the X-axis will show:
1. substrate concentration
2. enzyme concentration
3. pH
4. enzyme concentration or substrate concentration
The rate of enzyme action decreases at higher temperature [after a certain value] because the increased heat
1. changes the pH of the system
2. alters the active site of the enzyme
3. neutralizes the acids and bases in the system
4. increases the concentration of the enzyme
