Question

1 point
The catalytic efficiency of two
distinct enzymes can be
compared based on which of
the following factor? *
o
Size of the enzymes
O Product formation
O km
O pH of optimum value​

Answer 1

Answer:

3rd option is correct.

Explanation:

The catalytic efficiency of two different enzymes can be compared by comparing their Km value or Michaelis Menten constant. The Michaelis constant is the substrate concentration at which the reaction rate is at half-maximum. The Km describes the affinity of enzyme for a substrate molecule. Greater the affinity lower is the Km value and sooner the V max can be attained and vice versa.
