As the body progresses from the absorptive to the postabsorptive state, the Brain continues to burn glucose while virtually every other organ in the body switches to fatty acids as its major energy source. During the absorptive state the ingested nutrients enter blood from GI tract while the postabsorptive state the GI tract is empty of nutrient and body's own stores must supply energy.

Which describes the four cells that are produced at the end of meiosis? identical haploid cells genetically different diploid ce
algol13

Answer:In many ways, meiosis is a lot like mitosis. The cell goes through similar stages and uses similar strategies to organize and separate chromosomes. In meiosis, however, the cell has a more complex task. It still needs to separate sister chromatids (the two halves of a duplicated chromosome), as in mitosis. But it must also separate homologous chromosomes, the similar but nonidentical chromosome pairs an organism receives from its two parents.

Explanation:Mitosis(Opens in a new window)(Opens in a new window) is used for almost all of your body’s cell division needs. It adds new cells during development and replaces old and worn-out cells throughout your life. The goal of mitosis is to produce daughter cells that are genetically identical to their mothers, with not a single chromosome more or less.

Meiosis, on the other hand, is used for just one purpose in the human body: the production of gametes—sex cells, or sperm and eggs. Its goal is to make daughter cells with exactly half as many chromosomes as the starting cell.

To put that another way, meiosis in humans is a division process that takes us from a diploid cell—one with two sets of chromosomes—to haploid cells—ones with a single set of chromosomes. In humans, the haploid cells made in meiosis are sperm and eggs. When a sperm and an egg join in fertilization, the two haploid sets of chromosomes form a complete diploid set: a new genome.

What amino acid can be obtained by the reductive amination of γ-ketoglutaric acid
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

Glutamic acid

Explanation:

Reductive amination is a form of amination that involves the conversion of a carbonyl group to an amine via an intermediate imine. The carbonyl group is most commonly a ketone or an aldehyde. In this reaction, in the presence of enzyme glutamate dehydrogenase, ammonium ion directly combines with alpha-ketoglutaric acid, to form glutamic acid (amino acid) and for this to happen, a reduced coenzyme (NADPH) is required.

The biosynthesis of glutamic acid  can be obtianed from the reductive amination of γ-ketoglutaric acid

γ-Ketoglutaric acid is a common precursor in synthesis of glutamic acid. Addition of NADPH and ammonia or alpha amino acid with   γ-Ketoglutaric acid produces glutamic acid. Enzymes involved in this reduction amination  process are glutamate dehydrogenase and/or transaminase.

Why are Earth's materials and energy considered to be in equilibrium? (can be multiple answers)
butalik [34]

The correct answer is option A ,  C and D

The earths material is recycled and this can be visualized from the different chain cycles such as nitrogen cycle, carbon cycle , sulphur cycle, water cycle etc. These basic components which constitute all the matter existing on earth are continuously recycled and reused. Likewise the energy obtained from sun is neither created nor destroyed; it is only converted from one form of energy to the other form. Such as heat energy obtained from sun is converted into kinetic energy when it converts water into water vapor.
