In feedback inhibition, a metabolic pathway is switched off by:
1. a rise in temperature
2. lack of a substrate
3. accumulation of the end product
4. competitive inhibition

The unique properties of each amino acid is determined by its particular :
1. R group
2. amino group
3. kinds of peptide bonds
4. number of bonds to other amino acids

In competitive inhibition, if the concentration of the substrate is increased :
1. the rate of the reaction is increased
2. the rate of the reaction is decreased
3. the rate of the reaction is not affected
4. the reaction direction is reversed

Identify the structure of the amino acid that is a Zwitter ion :

1.		2.
3.		4.

The ion required as the co-factor for the proteolytic enzyme, carboxypeptidase, is:
1. Zinc
2. Copper
3. Iron
4. Manganese

The inhibition of succinic dehydrogenase by malonate is an example of:
1. Non-competitive reversible inhibition
2. Non-competitive irreversible inhibition
3. Competitive inhibition
4. Allosteric inhibition

The enzymes that catalyse removal of groups from substrates by mechanisms other than hydrolysis leaving double bonds are called as:

Consider the following enzymes:
I. Catalase
II. Peroxidase
III. Carboxypeptidase
Which of these enzymes require haem as a co-factor for their activity?

The property of the water molecule that is most important for the maintenance of homeostasis in living organisms is:
1. High latent heat of vaporization
2. High latent heat of fusion
3. High specific heat
4. Liquid form more dense than solid form

Chitin, a complex polysaccharide, is found in:
