Would you expect anaerobic bacteria to possess the enzyme Cytochrome Oxidase? Why or why not?
Aerobic bacteria uses oxygen as an electron acceptor during the oxidation process.
In this reduced cytochrom used and water and oxidized cytochrome are formed.
In anaerobes there is no use of oxygen & cytochrome oxidase performs redox where oxygen is the electron acceptor.
In anaerobes there is no oxygen as the final electron acceptor, so they don't possess cytochrome oxidase.

A. Cytochrome c oxidase is an enzyme found in bacteria that also possess a(n). (located in their inner cell membranes). B. Which of the two organisms shown is positive for the production of cytochrome c oxidase?
Cyanide is a non-competitive inhibitor of Cytochrome c Oxidase. What Km would you expect if you treated 4µM cytochrome oxidase with enough cyanide to lower the enzymes Vmax to 10 units of activity?
Mitochondrial enzyme- cytochrome c oxidase activity lab 1. What are the four main components of complex 4 or cytochrome c oxidase? 2. What happened to the absorption 55nm after addition of mitochondrial preparation and why?
Cyanide is a chemical that irreversibly binds to (and prevents the function of) the enzyme cytochrome oxidase, an essential component on the electron transport chain. Explain the effect this would have on cellular respiration and ATP synthesis. Why would this be lethal? Many plants produce cyanide in their tissue why would they do this
Cytochrome c oxidase is the last enzyme in the respiratory electron transport chain of mitochondria. It receives an electron from each of four iron-containing cytochrome c molecules and transfers the electrons to one oxygen molecule, converting molecular oxygen to two molecules of water. In the last step of the process, water is produced. The unbalanced equation for the redox reaction is: Fe2+(aq)+O2(aq)=Fe3+(aq)+H2O(l) Write the balanced equation for the reaction under acidic conditions. Include charges and states where appropriate. Use the...
why the cytochrome c oxidase activity is more in mitochondria than in a nuclei and debris in a leaf ?

Disagree Cytochrome oxidase is an enzyme found in some bacteria that transfers electrons to oxygen. a. Agree b. Disagree Phenol Red pH indicator will turn what color under alkaline conditions? a. Yellow b. Blueish Green c. Cherry Red or Bright Pink d. Red Glucose, Sucrose and Lactose are a. substrates for amino acid fermentation b. substrates for carbohydrate fermentation c. substrates...
Why Cytochrome-c-oxidase is more difficult to measure with near-infrared spectroscopy than hemoglobin? (lpt) 5.
bubble after incubation. b. There is no gas (or you know the gas is from fermentation) and the tube turns red after the addition of reagents A and B. c. There is no color after the addition of A and B and after the addition of zinc powder. Questions 1. Would expect Clostridium tetani to possess the enzyme catalase? Explain. 2. Why does the Nitrate reduction tube turn red after the addition of zinc? 3. What role does cytochrome c...
