Suppose that your Ph. D. mentor asks you to compare the kinetic behavior of the two recently discovered peptidase isozymes PepA and PepB. Your mentor's initial studies identified a pentapeptide substrate called Tide5 that appeared to be able to distinguish the kinetic behaviors of PepA and PepB. All they had time to tell you was this: At low Tide5 concentration, the V o (initial velocity) of PepA was greater than PepB, but at high Tide5 concentration, the reverse was true. Before you start your kinetic assays, you decide it would be wise to ponder this small bit of information. You have no numbers to work with, but does it tell you something about the relative values of K m and V max for PepA and PepB? Select the statements that are consistent with the information that you were given.

a. The Vmax of both isozymes could be the same, but the Km values must be different.
b. The Vmax of PepB must be greater.
c. The ratio of Vmax/Km must be larger for PepB.
d. The Km of both isozymes could be the same, but the Vmax values must be different.
e. The Km of PepB must be higher.

The last few miles of the marathon are the most difficult for heather, her hair plastered to her head, sweat clinging to her arms, and her legs already feeling as if they had nothing left, just dead weight. after grabbing a cup of ice water, she feels the ice cubes smash against her nose as she gulps some cool refreshment and keeps on running. in these last few miles, the breeze kicks up and she finally feels some coolness against her skin. drips of sweat, once clinging to her forehead, now spill down, and heather feels more pain as the sweat flows into her eyes.which of the following is the most likely reason why the ice struck heather’s nose when she took a drink? a) water can function as a solvent. b) water can store large amounts of heat. c) water can moderate temperatures through evaporative cooling. d) the density of water decreases when it freezes. e) water has a cohesive nature.sweat remained on heather’s forehead and arms because of the a) high salt content of sweat b) cohesive nature of water c) ability of water to moderate heat d) high evaporative cooling effect of water e) ability of water to act as a solvent
