36. What substances may be coenzymes page 9 37. What will determine an enzymes function? Read pages54-63 NUCLEIC ACIDS: Nucleic acids are very elements Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Phosphorus. There are two types of nucleic acids found in living organisms; DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) and RA (Ribonucleic acid). DNA contains the genes and makes up the chromosomes heredity. RNA plays an essential role in protein synthesis. that contain the involved in 5. carbon sugar (Deoxyribose, or Ribose), a nitrogen-s group.

Explanation / Answer

Ans-36

Coenzyme is organic substance which help enzyme to speed up chemical reaction. coenzyme is helper of enzymes in function such as Vitamin C.

Ans-37

Function of enzyme is determined by factors such as concentration of enzyme, concentration of substance, presence of inhibitor or activator, temperature and PH.

Ans-38

Nuclic acid is of two type DNA(deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid).

Ans-39

DNA is blueprint of living organism which consists of all information of organism and play important role in development of organism. Main function of DNA is long term storage of information of organism.

Ans-40

Main basic function of RNA is protein synthesis which involve m-RNA and t-RNA, m-RNA carry information from gene to where protein is synthesized while t-RNA help in assembly of amino acid in ribosomes during protein synthesis.

Ans-41

1. Building block Nucleic acid is nucleotide

2. Nucleotide consist of nucleoside + phosphate intern nucleoside consist of nitrogenous base + sugar
