Question 1
What does Vmax represent in enzyme kinetics?
💡 Hint: Think about the capacity of an enzyme at saturation.
Question 2
True or False: Km represents the substrate concentration at which the reaction rate is half of Vmax.
💡 Hint: Consider what happens when you adjust the substrate concentration.

Question 1
Given a set of data points for reaction rates and substrate concentrations, derive Km and Vmax using the Lineweaver-Burk plot.
💡 Hint: Remember that slope = Km/Vmax and intercept = 1/Vmax.
Question 2
Explain how a competitive inhibitor alters the kinetic parameters of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction.
💡 Hint: Think about how inhibitors interact at the active site.
