An example of the competitive inhibition of an enzyme is the inhibition of

• Succinic dehydrogenase by malonic acid

• Cytochrome oxidase by cyanide

• Hexokinase by glucose-6-phosphate

• Carbonic anhydrase by carbon dioxide

The enzyme hexokinase which catalysis glucose to a glucose-6-phosphate in glycolysis is inhibited by glucose-6-phosphate. This is an example of

I. Competitive inhibition

II. non-competitive inhibition

III. feedback allosteric inhibition

Which of the above statements is/are correct?

• I and II

• I and III

• Only III

• All of these

Match the biological molecule listed under column I with their biological function listed under column II. Choose the answer which gives correct combination of alphabet of the two columns.

• A-3, B-2, C-4, D-1

• A-4, B-2, C-1, D-3

• A-2, B-4, C-3, D-1

• A-4, B-3, C-1, D-2

Two cells A and B are contiguous. Cell A has osmotic pressure 10 atm, turgor pressure-7 atm and diffusion pressure deficit 3 atm. Cell B has osmotic pressure 8 atm, turgor pressure 3 atm and diffusion pressure deficit 5 atm. The result will be

• Movement of water from cell B to A

• No movement of water

• The equilibrium between the two

• Movement of water from cell A to B

Jacob and Monod name some enzymes as allosteric whose activity is regulated by
