Competitive inhibitors have a similar shape to the substrate and they compete with the substrate to bind to the enzymes active site. When they bind to the active site, they block the substrate from bindin...

Start with the given equation from the question and differentiate it with respect to x to give you:dy/dx = 2x - 1The value of this gives you the slope of the curve and we know that the minimum point has a...

We know that a stationary point is found when the gradient of the curve is equal to zero, this is found by equaling the derivative (dy/dx) equal to zero. Differentiating the expression will find a quadrat...

• Both dominant and recessive allele frequencies will remain constant assuming the absence of migration, mutation and selection• p² + 2pq + q² = 1• Where p=frequency of A/N; p=freque...

• Hydrogen bonds holding base pairs in the anti- parallel strands are broken by an enzyme; the two halves of the molecule separate • DNA unwinds and the strands separate; DNA polymerase catalyses the addi...
