What will most likely happen if the amount of enzyme that catalyzes this reaction is increased?

The reaction will speed up.


What will happen if the substrate concentration is high?

If the substrate concentration is high, the rate of enzyme-substrate complex formation will increase until all enzyme active sites are saturated, which is known as enzyme saturation. This means that the rate of reaction will no longer increase with further increases in substrate concentration because all enzyme active sites are already in use.


What would happen if most biochemical reactions are catalyzed by the same enzyme?

If an enzyme produces too much of one substance in the organism, that substance may act as an inhibitor for the enzyme at the beginning of the pathway that produces it, causing production of the substance to slow down or stop when there is sufficient amount.


What do you think will happen to the amount of volcanoes and what impact will it have on farming?

The amount of volcanoes will tend to increase, which will impact farming in a negative way by decreasing the amount of available farmland.


Do catalysts increase the amount of product?

No, increasing concentration of a reactant simply allows for more of a reaction to take place as there will be more molecules present for collisions to happen. Although increasing the volume probably would yield more of a product. The same is true for catalysts higher concentration = more collisions (look up collision theory) although the catalyst does not get used up, simply regenerates.

Why does it happen enzyme after it participates in a reaction?

After the enzyme has converted the substrate to the product, it is now free to accept more substrate. The enzyme does not get changed or altered in a reaction.

Is an allosteric site of an enzyme often involved in feed back inhibitition?

yes it can be. as the enzyme produces more of a product if that product becomes too many then one will bind to the allosteric site of the enzyme haulting its own production. (negative feedback). and the same thing can happen for positive feedback
