What component of enzyme structure is responsible for enzyme specificity

2 answers:

4 0

A few enzymes exhibit absolute specificity; that is, they will catalyze only one particular reaction. Other enzymes will be specific for a particular type of chemical bond or functional group. In general, there are four distinct types of specificity: Absolute specificity - the enzyme will catalyze only one reaction.

Hey there,

Your question states: What component of enzyme structure is responsible for enzyme specificity?

Based on my understanding of your question, your correct answer would be Substrates.Substrates are responsible for enzyme specificity. They do play an important role in the enzyme. There are species that basically observe a chemical reaction.

Your correct answer is $\boxed{Substrates}$

Hope this helps.

______________ is the process of translating a message received into understandable language or symbols.

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

The process of converting a message into a form where it can be transmitted as signals from the sender to the receiver is called as encoding. However, the process of the reconverting the encoded message into intelligible forms so that a receiver could understand the message is called as decoding. However, the entire process of encoding and decoding is known as communication.

For example -

In order to decode a sound signals, analogue from digital are retrieved.

Hence, option B is correct

In a population of tree frogs, the allele that causes yellow eyes (Y) is dominant over the allele that causes orange eyes (y). I

Alex787 [66]

Allele that causes yellow eyes (Y) is dominant over the allele that causes orange eyes (y)

Y = 85% = 0.85 and

y = 100% - 85% = 15% = 0.15

f(y) = square root of y = √y = √0.15 = 0.387

frequency of the allele that causes orange eyes = 0.387

Once we know the value of y, Y + y = 1

Putting the value of y, we get

Y = 1 – 0.387

Frequency of the dominant allele that causes yellow eyes = 0.61

Elden [556K]

The correct answer is that "RNA polymerase binds to the promoter, which precedes the gene only on the template strand of DNA."

A gene is best described as a chain of DNA or RNA which codes for a molecule that has a characteristic. for the duration of gene expression, the DNA is first duplicated into RNA. The RNA can be immediately practical or be the intermediate template for a protein that plays a characteristic. The transmission of genes to an organism's offspring is the idea of the inheritance of phenotypic traits.
