2

What is the substrate of urease?

a

Urea

b

Ammonia

c

Carbon dioxide

d

Water

3

Which products are formed when urease acts on urea?

a

Nitrogen and oxygen

b

Ammonia and carbon dioxide

c

Glucose and oxygen

d

Water and hydrogen

4

Why is the active site important?

a

It stores products.

b

It gives the enzyme its color.

c

It transports enzymes around the cell.

d

It is where the substrate binds and the reaction occurs.

5

What metal ion is found in the active site of urease?

a

Iron

b

Nickel

c

Calcium

d

Magnesium

6

How does increasing temperature affect urease activity?

a

Activity increases until the optimum temperature is reached.

b

Activity always decreases.

c

Temperature has no effect.

d

Activity immediately stops.

7

What is the approximate optimum temperature for many ureases?

a

Around 20°C

b

Around 80°C

c

Around 10°C

d

Around 60°C

8

What is the optimum pH generally around for urease?

a

around 2–3

b

around 7–8

c

around 9–10

d

around 4–5

9

Why does Helicobacter pylori produce urease?

a
