1953
3 of 25
Rosalind Franklin helped Crick and Watson using...
X-ray crystallography
4 of 25
Why is mRNA needed?
DNA is too big to exit the nucleus and therefore needs to be copied
5 of 25
How to enzymes work? (lock & key)
enzyme & substrate -> enzyme-substrate complex -> enzyme & products
6 of 25
Why won't one enzyme work on all biological reactions?
Since the active sites of each type of enzyme are the correct shape to facilitate the reaction.
7 of 25
How do you calculate temperature coefficient?
Q10 = rate at high temp/rate at low temp
8 of 25
Anaerobic respiration
C6H12O6 -> C3H6O6 (+ENERGY)
9 of 25
Why metabolic rate affected by PH and temp?
Enzymes
10 of 25
What is the RQ of Glucose?
6CO2/6O2 = 1
11 of 25
Metabolic Rate is...
the sum of all the reactions occurring in the body
