Question

If a chemical that inhibits Enzyme #3 was added to the system, which of the following would result?

Product #1 would accumulate in the system.
Product #2 would accumulate in the system.
Substrate #1 would accumulate in the system.
Substrate #1 would become depleted.
Substrate #3 would accumulate in the system.
Product #4 would accumulate in the system.
Substrate #4 would be depleted in the system.
The final product would be depleted in the system

Answer 2

I need to think about the whole enzyme process now :P

Answer 3

there can be than one answers

Answer 4

more than one

Answer 5

@aaronq

Answer 6

aaronq can help I'm sure
I caaaaaaaaaan't right now!!

didn't even study it detail about enzymes yet..

Answer 7

omg ok until then next one? i only have like 5 moore there easyyyy well for u since ur smart lol

Answer 8

I'm not sure what the #3 is referring to, but enzyme inhibitors prevent the enzyme from carrying out reactions, so no product will form (and since the substrate is not being changed into product, it will accumulate).

Answer 9

oh ok. so the answers should be

Answer 10

Substrate #3 would accumulate in the system. Just as aaronq mentioned above. Enzymes are highly specific. They are similar to a lock, in other words, their shape accepts only the right substrate to fit, just like a key. So, if the enzyme is been inhibit by a chemical, it wont be able to react with its specific substrate to create a product. Hope this helps :)
