In the energy diagram, which of the lettered energy changes would be the same in both the enzyme- catalyzed and uncatalyzed reactions?

Step 1
This means that the overall energy change in the reaction is the same, but the energy barrier to reach the transition state is lower. Show more…

Draw a diagram of enzyme function with and without enzymes for the reaction: A + B -> transition state -> C + D + energy On the diagram, show: 1. Show the free energy of the reactants using horizontal lines. 2. Show the energy of activation (EA) both with and without an enzyme. Use letters A and B. Are the values the same? 3. Indicate the change in free energy (ΔG) of the reaction. Use letter C. Is it exergonic or endergonic?

The graph below shows energy profiles of the catalyzed and uncatalyzed conversions of reactants "A+B" to products "C+D". Use the graph below to answer the following "Part 1" questions about enzymes. a) Is converting "A+B" to "C+D" endergonic or exergonic? How do you know? (1) b) Which lowercase letter on the graph represents the ΔG for the reaction? How do you know? (1) c) Which lowercase letter on the graph represents the activation energy of the uncatalyzed reaction? How do you know? (1) d) Could the addition of an enzyme to an endergonic reaction transform that endergonic reaction into an exergonic reaction? Explain why or why not. (2)
