When coming to building something, some materials are more vulnerable to water and can wear away easier. Some can keep the water in, so depending on the material, the water quality can be better sustained.

As compared to gravel, asphalt is an impervious material, thus it allows water to flow over its top without infiltration. In this process the impurities present in the water do not get removed but is gathered and carried away till the maximum concentration point is reached and then removed at later stages. While if there would have been a permeable material like gravel etc, the impurities in water is not discarded but is retained due to infiltration at unwanted locations.

Describe how C. parvum obtains the glucose it needs for glycolysis after it has infected another cell. Explain the role of lacta
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

C. parvum takes energy from glucose which is present in the digestive tract after the process of glycolysis.

Lactate dehydrogenase which is responsible for the conversion of lactate into pyruvate molecule.

Explanation:

C. parvum is a protozoa that lives as a parasite in the digestive tract of animals. They take nutrients from the cell which are present in the form of glucose. C. parvum uses a specific type of enzyme i. e. lactate dehydrogenase which is responsible for the conversion of lactate into pyruvate and also helps in the production of ATP through glycolysis process. In this process, the glucose molecule is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate, two molecules of ATP, two molecules of NADH, and two molecules of water. So C. parvum takes ATP from that way from the host cells.
