Imagine you are in a laboratory. You are exploring the following reaction: A + B → C When the product C is created, bubbles form

. When 10mL of A is added to 10mL of B, the reaction takes twenty seconds. Your teacher gives you three unknown substances (X, Y, and Z), one of which is a catalyst for the reaction. Design an experiment to test substances X, Y, and Z to determine which one is a catalyst for the reaction.

Prepare three test tubes containing reactant A.  Prepare three test tubes containing reactant B.  Add one test tube of reactant B and one unknown to one test tube of reactant A. Repeat for the other two unknowns. Time the reaction until bubbling stops. The unknown that causes the reaction to occur the quickest is the catalyst.

Ok so in this experiment what we want to find is the catalyst for the reaction. Our original reaction is the following. A + B --> C, therefore to find which of the unknown substances (X, Y, and Z) is the catalyst reaction we simply have to do the following:


A + B + X --> C

A + B + Y --> C

A + B + Z --> C


The reaction that produces C much faster than our original reaction A + B --> C will be our catalyst. The reason being that one of the substances will increase the rate of the chemical reaction.


I hope it helps, Regards.

Why does it make metabolic sense for the same hormone signal to stimulate glycogenolysis and inhibit glycolysis in the liver whi
Debora [2.8K]

This is because if the two  metabolic processes were to be  active at at the same time;  

Two molecules of<u> ATPs</u> and <u>Guanosine triphophate </u>(sometimes used for  energy transport) <u>will be expended per each cycle, with no  compensatory rate  of replacements present  at the moment in the cell,this  affects cell metabolism for energy availability</u>

<u>2</u> Both<u> Glycolysis and Gluconeogensis </u>are both<u> exergonic processes  in cells. </u> The  heat energy liberated from these Calorinogenic effects  will be higher than what the natural thermodynamic barrier of cells can withstand. Consequently;  the heat will raise temperature of the cells affecting metabolic activities of hormones and enzymes which are (proteins) ,and easily denature by high temperatures.    

However, in muscles cells,gluconeogeneis is a compensasory process of Glycolysis. This because during active exercise with high metabolic demand in muscles cells, glucose is rapidly metabolise  to to pyruvate,(but not at the rate that the Citric acid  cycle can  metabolise) for Lactic acid production by muscles cells for energy production.  Pyruvate must be broken down rapidly so that NAD+ will be available for  Glycolysis to continue. Therefore  to sustain Glycolysis at this rate  continuous supply of glucose is supplied  from Gluconeogenesis.

A pathologist who wants to examine a patient's liver cells to determine if the mitochondria have an internal structural defect w
BlackZzzverrR [31]
The correct answer is "transmission electron microscope".

The transmission electron microscope can magnify the organelles of the cell clearly; as in light microscopes wherein most organelles cannot be visualized. TEM works by using a beam of electrons to pass through a specimen to make a clear image. Because of its superior magnification, mitochondrial defects can be visualized easily.

Attached is a sample picture of a transmission electron microscope image of a mitochondria.

What did rosenberg and trevathan discover in their study comparing human and nonhuman primate birth?
melamori03 [73]
When comparing the birth patterns of humans and non-human primate, Rosenberg and Trevathan discovered some very clear differences:

1. The human period of labour and child birth is exceptionally long and painful compared to other non-human primates.
E.g. a human labour can last anywhere from 10-20 hours while that of a chimpanzee lasts only 2 hours.

2. Humans have the ability to walk straight, the trade off however is that it is extremely difficult and painful to give birth to a big brained human baby.
