Glycolysis Shortcut Suppose you discovered a mutant yeast whose glycolytic pathway was shorter because of the presence of a new

enzyme catalyzing the reactionGlyceraldehyde 3-phosphate□H2O3-phosphoglycerateNAD□NADH□H□Would shortening the glycolytic pathway in this way benefit the cell? Explain.

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

As you may already know, glycolysis is an anaerobic metabolic pathway, that is, without the presence of oxygen, which is able to break down glycolysis into smaller molecules that are capable of providing energy (ATP) to living beings after a series coordinated and indispensable reactions.

In the question above, we can see that a cinetist discovered a mutant yeast that was able to perform glycolysis more quickly due to the presence of a certain enzyme. If we analyze the reaction that this enzyme is capable of generating, we can conclude that the shortening of glycolysis is not beneficial to the cell. This is because the amount of ATP produced anaerobically, by glycolysis, would be non-existent. Aerobic ATP production would also be affected, but on a small scale.

artcher [175]

The right answers are complete gut and one-way gut.


Food is ingested by the mouth, where it is chewed and then thrown into the esophagus during swallowing.

After, there is food in the stomach

Then there is digestive absorption of nutrients in the small intestine

After that, Waste disposal and reabsorption of water in the colon (large intestine)

And finally, stool passes through the rectum (anus), where it is stored before defecation, induced by a reflex mechanism.

In a two-point test cross, 36 of the offspring were recombinant types. The remaining 64 offspring were parental types. How many
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

36

Explanation:

A two-point test-cross is a cross between an individual with a double heterozygote genotype and a homo-zygous recessive individual in order to determine the recombination frequency between two linked genes. In genetics, one map unit (m.u.) can be defined as the measure of the distance (i.e., genetic distance instead of physical distance) between genes for which one (1) product of meiosis in one hundred (100) is recombinant. In this case, 36 of the offspring have the recombinant phenotype, while the remaining 64 offspring are not recombinant, and therefore both genes are separated by 36 mu (64 + 36 = 100 >> 36 mu).

liubo4ka [24]
That's because they are in the same climate zone. The earth's climate zones change going from the north pole to the equator, and then from the equator to Antarctica, like a mirror image. The two are found in the same zones on the opposite hemispheres.
