Correct answer: "<span>D - it becomes glucose through the process of photosynthesis"

The atmospheric carbon is absorbed by plants in the form of carbon dioxide and used in the process of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis takes 6 carbon dioxide molecules and 6 water molecules to produce a molecule of glucose and 6 of oxygen. That's where most of the atmospheric carbon is used in.</span>

Phosphofructokinase is an allosteric enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of fructose 6-phosphate to fructose 1,6-bisphosphate,
zhenek [66]
I believe in the presence of oxygen, an increase in the amount of ATP in a cell would be expected to inhibit the enzyme and therefore, slow the rates of glycolysis and the citric acid cycle. Phosphofructokinase is and enzyme that phosphorylates fructose 6 phosphate in glycolysis. It is an important control enzyme in the regulation of cellular respiration. It is inhibited by ATP and is an allosteric enzyme.

Imagine you are a red blood cell sitting in the right atria of the heart. Write a paragraph that describes what happens to this
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

A red blood cell, sitting in the right atria of the heart is chocolate-brown in color since its a deoxygenated red blood cell with carbon dioxide rather than oxygen in its hemoglobin.

 

First

The tricuspid valve pumps it through the right ventricle

Secondly

pulmonary valve pumps it from the right ventricle to the pulmonary circulation.

Then

In the alveoli of the lungs, gas exchange occurs during pulmonary circulation

The end product is oxyhemoglobin( bright red colour) I.e oxygenated blood

The next step

pulmonary veins is the means whereby the red blood cell go to the left atria from the pulmonary circulation through the aortic valve

to mitral valve then to the aorta and systemic circulation

Therefore

oxygen is replaced by carbon dioxide during systemic circulation indicating a end to cellular respiration

Lastly

It's transported back to the right atrium of the heart completing the cardiac cycle.
