5 0

Answer: Directly or indirectly, the sun provides energy for living organisms, and it drives our planet's weather and climate patterns. Because Earth is spherical, energy from the sun does not reach all areas with equal strength.

What problems do desert plants and rainforest plants have in regards to water and how have they adapted to deal with these probl

Juli2301 [7.4K]

The desert plants ans the rainforest plants both have problems with water, just that they are total opposite ones. The desert plants have problems because they do not have enough water. In order to cope with that, these plants have developed methods through which they are able to retain water and not a single drop to evaporate from them. They also are able to take in water from the air, and have enormous root systems. The plants in the rainforests have problems with too much water, so they have adapted very wide leaves so that the water doesn't go toward their roots. The roots also are able to restrict the intake of water, while the plants themselves have extremely high tolerance to water. They also have developed larger pores on their leaves in order for the water to evaporate more easily from them.

In the Cori cycle, when glucose is degraded by glycolysis to lactate in muscle, the lactate is excreted into the blood and retur

Fantom [35]

Answer: Cori cycle consumes more energy,it expended 4ATPs, therefore with poor efficiency.

1 Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase.

it is an enzyme which functions in Glycolysis only, to breakdown the 6th. step of of subtrate phosphorylation of glucose.

2. glucose-6-phosphotase.

This is the enzyme that works in gluconeogenesis only to intiaate its first step. it hydrolyse glucose-6-phosphate , to generate glucose and phosphate.

Alcohol dehydrogenase

This enzyme does not play any role with both pathways.Rather it catalysis the oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to aldehyde and ketones. The reaction involves reduction with NADH+

phosphoenopyruvate carboxykinase

functions in the gluconeogensis pathways for conversion of oxaloacatate to phosphoenopyruvate and CO2.

Phosphofructokinase-1

function as regulatory enzyme of glycolysis to convert fructose-6-phosphate and ATP hydrolysis to glucose 1, 6, bisphosphate and ADP respectively.

Phosphoglycerate mutase.

An enzyme involved in glycolytic pathway, it catalysed the 8th step of glycolysis.

Hexokinase- an enzyme of glycolytic pathway invloved in phosphorylation of glucose, to intiate the process of glycolysis.

Pyruvate dehydrogenase

This is an enzyme that converts pyruvate to acetyl Co-A.

therefore it plays no role in the two pathways, because glycolytic pathway ends with pyruvate production.
