Biuret's reagent

Sudan Iv

Course Expectation: Describe how enzymes regulate chemical reactions in the body.

Performance Indicators:  Identify how enzymes control chemical reactions in the body.

 Figure 5

Figure 5 is an enzyme energy diagram. Which arrow represents the enzyme activity and why?

A because it increases activation energy.

A because it decreases activation energy.

B because it increases activation energy.

B because it decreases activation energy.

None of these

Course Expectations: Compare different models to explain the movement of materials into and out of cells.

Performance Indicators: Compare and contrast active and passive transport.

Active transport differs from passive transport how?

Passive transport requires energy and moves from high to low concentration.

Active transport requires energy and moves from high to low concentration.

Passive transport requires energy and moves from low to high concentration.

Active transport requires energy and moves from low to high concentration.
