When the velocity of enzyme activity is plotted against substrate concentration, which of the following is obtained?(a) Hyperbolic curve(b) Parabola(c) Straight line with positive slope(d) Straight line with negative slopeI have been asked this question in homework.I'd like to ask this question from Enzyme Kinetics as an Approach to Understanding Mechanism in division Enzymes, Carbohydrates and Gycobiology of Biochemistry

Answer»

The CORRECT option is (a) HYPERBOLIC curve

To EXPLAIN I would say: At low substrate concentration, the rate of a reaction is determined by the rate of FORMATION of an enzyme-substrate complex.
