Hydrolysis is when a polymer (such as a peptide bond or fatty acid) is split into smaller segments by adding water.
The term applied when water passes through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of high to low concentration is called osmosis. Osmotic pressure is defined as the amount of external pressure that is required to stop the net movement of the solution across the semi permeable membrane. In terms of biology, osmosis has great importance as most of the membranes in our body are semi permeable. Permeability depends on several factors such as charge, solubility, solute size and chemistry. Osmosis is the process that provides the primary means through which water travels in and out of the cells.
The correct answer is that mutant cells will exhibit diminished oxygen consumption; decreased glycolysis results in decreased Kreb's cycle and electron transport chain.
The PFK2 enzyme catalyzes the generation of F26BP, this binds with the allosteric site of PFK-1 and increases the affinity of PFK-1 with F6P and also decreases the affinity of allosteric inhibitors citrate and ATP to PFK-1. Thus, PFK-1 will combine with F6P at a greater rate.
This ultimately results in more glycolysis, thus, more ETC and more consumption of O2. If there is no PFK2, then there will be a reduction in glycolysis, TCA, ETC, and consumption of oxygen.
The PFK2 is an enzyme accountable for monitoring the rates of gluconeogenesis and glycolysis in the human body. In the absence of glycolysis, there will be a reduction in TCA, ETC, and consumption of O2.
Answer:
The correct answer is peroxisome
Explanation:
<span>The sequence of alternation of generation is; gametes->zygote->sporophyte->spores->gametophyte->gametes.
The attached diagram shows clearly this looped cycle. Alternation of generation
occurs in a more advanced land plant that
has distinct
haploid and diploid phases in their life
cycle. The diploid phase usually involves
the sporophyte while the haploid phase involves the gametophyte</span>
