3)   In enzyme kinetics why does the initial reaction rate (vo) resemble the steady state in living cells?  

4)   Also, in enzyme kinetics the Km value is an indicator of enzyme binding efficiency, is a low or high Km value indicative of better efficiency in living cells? Why?

5)   Consider competitive inhibitors. Why does their presence raise the Km value?
