Question

Value. 5 Which of the following statements is NOT correct for a metabolic pathway? O a. One reaction leads to the next reaction. b. They begin with a particular reactant and terminate with an end product O c. Metabolic pathways are highly organized and structured : d. Metabolic energy is captured more easily if it is released in large amounts rather than in small incramants Value: 5 Study this metabolic pathway: Enzyme 1 catalyzes the conversion of A toB Enzyme 2 catalyzes the conversion of B to C Enzyme 3 catalyzes the conversion of C to D Which of the following statements is NOT correct? Oa. A is the substrate for enzyme B and B is the product b. Enzyme E2 can catalyze the substrate B but not substrates A, C, and D O c. C is the product of the reaction catalyzed by enzyme 3 and D is the reactant of that reaction d. B is the product formed by enzyme E 1 but the substrate for enzyme E2 O e. A is a reactant in the first reaction that forms the product 8 Check Answers

Explanation / Answer

Ans : Metabolic energy is captured more easily if it is released in large amounts rather than in small amounts.

Metabolic energy if released in small amounts , will not be utilised by our body , but will be lost in the form of heat. Whereas if the energy is released in large amounts, it is captured by the body and put into better use or stored in the tissues for the future use.
