Question:
Which of the following statements are correct? Explain your answers.
A. Some enzyme-catalyzed reactions cease completely if their enzyme is absent.
B. High-energy electrons (such as those found in the activated carriers NADH and NADPH) move faster around the atomic nucleus.
C. Hydrolysis of ATP to AMP can provide about twice as much energy as hydrolysis of ATP to ADP.
D. A partially oxidized carbon atom has a some what smaller diameter than a more reduced one.
E. Some activated carrier molecules can transfer both energy and a chemical group to a second molecule.
F. The rule that oxidations release energy, whereas reductions require energy input, applies to all chemical reactions, not just those that occur in living cells.
G. Cold-blooded animals have an energetic disadvantage because they release less heat to the environment than warm-blooded animals do. This slows their ability to make ordered macromolecules.
H. Linking the reaction X → Y to a second, energetically favorable reaction Y → Z will shift the equilibrium constant of the first reaction.
