HMX biochemistry Question and Answer 100% Correct | Graded A+

HMX biochemistry Question and Answer 100% Correct | Graded A+ activation energy - energy needed to get a reaction started Delta G (change in G - change in free energy) - respresented in a reaction coordinate diagram. Positive is thermodynamically unfavorable. Negative is thermodynamically favorable (exergonic - release energy). = G(products) - G(reactants) enzyme - catalyze chemical reaction. Lower activation energy. Biological catalyst (protein) enzyme inhibition - results in decrease in activity of that enzyme, reaising activation enregy of reaction it catalyzes enzyme activation - results in increase in activity of that enzyme, lowering activation energy of reaction it catalyzes equilibrium - when rate of forward and reverse reactions are same. Concentration of products and reactants don't change appreciably over time but reaction is going. On average, same # of A + B reactions and C splitting reactions occurring a given period of time
