AQA A Level Biology 2021 Paper 1 Question Paper
Describe the induced-fit model of enzyme action and how an enzyme acts as a
catalyst.
[3 marks]
0 1 . 2 Scientists investigated the action of the enzyme ATP synthase. They made reaction
mixtures each containing:
• ATP synthase
• buffer (to control pH)
• substrates.
One of the substrates required in these reaction mixtures is inorganic phosphate (Pi).
Tick () one box to show which other substrate the scientists must add to the reaction
mixtures to produce ATP.
[1 mark]
Adenine
Adenosine diphosphate
Glucose
Ribose

box 0 1 . 3 The scientists investigated the effect of concentration of inorganic phosphate (Pi) on
ATP synthase activity.
After 2 minutes, they stopped each reaction and then measured the concentration of
ATP.
Figure 1 shows the scientists’ results.

Suggest and explain a procedure the scientists could have used to stop each reaction.

A student studied Figure 3 and concluded that the fish gas exchange system is more
efficient than the human gas exchange system.
Use Figure 3 to justify this conclusion
