Lineweaver Burk graphs are particularly useful for analyzing how enzyme kinematics change in the presence of inhibitors‚ competitive‚ noncompetitive‚ or a mixture of the two.

by connecting nodes with randomly placed links. Their simple approach revitalised graph theory and led to the emergence of the field of random networks. An important prediction of random network theory is regardless of the random placement of links most nodes will still have approximately the same number of links. In fact‚ in a random network the nodes follow a Poisson distribution with a bell shape (see Fig.1). Random networks are also called exponential‚ because the probability that a node
