Which of the following is not a necessary component of translation

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.

Under which of the following circumstances would natural selection not operate on an organism

Which of the following is true about the introduction of a non-native species to an environment? (a) they usually adapt quickly so they can have a positive affect on the environment. (b) they can disrupt the environment and cause much damage and devastation to native species. (c) they usually become predators in a food chain and to keep prey populations under control. (d) because the native species are better-adapted to the environment, the non-native species always end up dying out.
