,4) When Keq of a reaction = 1, then
A) the forward reaction is faster than the reverse reaction.
B) the reverse reaction is faster than the forward reaction.
C) the forward and reverse reaction rate constants are equal.
D) more products are formed than reactants.
E) fewer products are formed than reactants.
Answer: C
Page Ref: Section 4
5) Which statement is true about a reaction with an equilibrium constant, Keq, equal to 1000?
A) The forward rate constant is 1000 times greater than the reverse rate constant.
B) The forward rate constant is 3 times greater than reverse rate constant.

, 8) Prokaryotes are valuable tools for biochemists because
A) E. coli is well-studied and typical of prokaryotes.
B) they contain as many genes as eukaryotic cells.
C) many of their chromosomes are sequenced.
D) they are not very diverse organisms.

C) chloroplasts
D) lysosomes
E) vacuoles
Answer: A
Page Ref: Section 8
10) Why is it important that the enzymes in lysosomes are more active at acidic pH than at neutral
pH?
A) Since lysosomes are primarily found in the stomach acid of mammals, their pH
dependence allows for maximum efficiency for the digestion of foodstuffs.
B) It prevents their diffusion out of the lysosomes.
C) It maximizes the interaction with their substrates which are always bases.
D) It prevents them from accidentally degrading the macromolecules in the cytosol.
E) It allows for regulation of their uptake by the mitochondria.
Answer: D
Page Ref: Section 8
