put the steps of the nitrogen cycle in order, starting with the step that
removes nitrogen from the atmosphere.

a) * dead animals decompose.

b) * gaseous nitrogen is released.

c) * nitrogen moves from soil to plant material.

d) * nitrogen molecules are split apart.

The reactions that occur in the ribosome, where amino acids are combined to form proteins are anabolic or catabolic?

Penicillin is hydrolyzed and thereby rendered inactive by penicillinase (also known as β-lactamase), an enzyme present in some resistant bacteria. the mass of this enzyme in staphylococcus aureus is 29.6 kd. the amount of penicillin hydrolyzed in 1 minute in a 10-ml solution containing 10-9 g of purified penicillinase was measured as a function of the concentration of penicillin. assume that the concentration of penicillin does not change appreciably during the assay. penicillin(μm) amount hydrolyzed(nmol) 1 0.11 3 0.25 5 0.34 10 0.45 30 0.58 50 0.61 (a) plot v0 versus [s] and 1/v0 versus 1/[s] for these data. does penicillinase appear to obey michaelis-menten kinetics? if so, what is the value of km? (b) what is the value of vmax? (c) what is the turnover number of penicillinase under these experimental conditions? assume one active site per enzyme molecule.

Use the drop-down menus to match each part of the scenario to the correct scientific practice. akira records the speed of a reaction without a catalyst and then with a catalyst. akira creates a reaction without a catalyst and repeats the reaction with a catalyst. akira turns in a written lab report to his science teacher. akira wonders, "will adding a catalyst speed up this chemical reaction? " akira writes in his notes that adding a catalyst sped up the chemical reaction because the catalyst lowers the activation energy needed to get the reaction started.
