The question asks for the variant with the lowest catalytic efficiency. My question is why, per the AAMC explanation, do we need to look at the ratio of kcat/Km? I arrived at the answer by looking at just Km or kcat. However the explanation said to look at the ratio. I notice the AAMC does this a lot - comparing ratios instead of one constant. Can somebody please clarify?
Thank you.
