In some proteins, a hydrogen bond may form between
a) a positive R group on one amino acid and a negatively charged carbohydrate
b) a negatively charged R group on one amino acid and a positively charged nucleic acid
c) a positive R group on one amino acid and a negatively charged R group on another amino acid

Sarin, a nerve gas, was released into the Tokyo subway system in 1995 injuring more than 5000 people. Sarin blocked the active sites of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, which degrades acetylcholine, a compound that causes muscles to contract. Over-contraction of muscles can cause asphyxiation. What is the biological term for this nerve gas?
a) activator
b) cofactor
c) coenzyme
d) binding site
e) competitive inhibitor

The following potentials are measured inside and outside the cell, yet there is no net flow of X ions. Why? a) X must be transported via facilitated diffusion, but there is no transport protein b) there is no permeability for X c) X is a cation, so it remains in the cell d) X must be transported via active transport, and there is no ATPc) X is a cation, so it remains in the cellWhat sort of transporters would be required to move glucose from the blood to the lumen.
