The curve given below shows enzymatic activity with relation to three conditions (pH, temperature and substrate concentration.) What do the two axes (x and y) represent?

1. x-axis: enzymatic activity, y-axis: pH
2. x-axis: temperature, y-axis: enzyme activity
3. x-axis: substrate concentration, y-axis: enzymatic activity
4. x-axis: enzymatic activity, y-axis: temperature

Correct answer: x-axis: substrate concentration, y-axis: enzymatic activity

Solution

The graph is showing how enzyme activity changes as substrate concentration changes, so substrate concentration is the independent variable on the x-axis. Enzymatic activity is the response being measured, so it belongs on the y-axis.
