Cells ?I believe :) hope this helps
Answer:
The correct answer would be His mitochondria lack the transport protein that moves pyruvate across the outer mitochondrial membrane.
In cellular respiration, glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm of the cell and converts glucose into 2 molecules of pyruvate. Pyruvate is then transported into the mitochondria for further oxidation.
It is transported into the mitochondria with the help of transport protein pyruvate translocase where it is decorboxylated to produce acetyl-CoA. This acetyl-CoA then enters the Krebs cycle to produce ATP (adenosine triphosphate) with the help of oxidative phosphorylation, electron transport chain and chemiosmosis.
In absence of this transport protein, the cell can not completely oxidize the glucose or carbohydrate. It switches to the metabolism of fats and amino acids in order to meet the energy demands of the cell.
Lac operon gets activated in the presence of lactose, but Trp operon gets deactivated in the presence of tryptophan.
