Too much logging in the oyamel fir forests could lead to the eastern monarch butterfly going extinct because <u>the entire population of the species spends winter in oyamel fir forests.</u>

<u>Why it is the correct option:</u>

a. The oyamel fir forests serve as the winter home for the eastern monarch butterflies. The entire population of monarch butterflies moves to oyamel fir forests in Mexico during winters to protect themselves from the freezing cold temperatures of their natural, breeding habitat. So, too much logging of the oyamel fir trees will destroy the winter habitat of these butterflies, and hence will lead to the decline in their population.

<u>Why the other options are incorrect:</u>

b. the butterflies breed in the oyamel fir trees is an incorrect option because the monarch butterflies breed in their natural habitats in the US.

c. the winters are too cold in oyamel is an incorrect option because these butterflies move to oyamel forests to protect themselves from cold.

d. the butterflies feed on the oyamel fir trees is an incorrect option because the monarch butterflies feed on milkweed.

Some amino acids are both glucogenic and ketogenic. Explain the difference between the two types and why some amino acids can be
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

From the point of view of the type of molecule that is obtained after the degradation of the hydrocarbon skeleton, amino acids can be classified as: glucogenic and ketogenic. The main difference between glucogenic amino acids and ketogenic amino acids is that glucogenic amino acids can be converted to pyruvate or other glucose precursors, while ketogenic amino acids can be converted to acetyl CoA and acetoacetylCoA.

Explanation:

Glucogenic amino acids are amino acids that break down to pyruvate, alpha-ketoglutarate, succinyl Co-A, fumarate, and oxaloacetate and are so named because the synthesis of glucose from these molecules is feasible. Both pyruvate and the Krebs cycle intermediates noted above can be converted to phosphoenolpyruvate and subsequently glucose through gluconeogenesis.Ketogenic amino acids are the amino acids that generate acetyl-CoA or acetacetyl-CoA and are called by this name because they can cause ketone bodies. Since mammals lack the proper enzyme system, these compounds can never be used as precursors for glucose biosynthesis. Of the twenty universal amino acids, fourteen are purely glucogenic and two are purely ketogenic (leucine and lysine). The remaining four (isoleucine, phenylalanine, tryptophan and tyrosine) are glucogenic and ketogenic simultaneously since a part of the hydrocarbon skeleton originates precursors for the biosynthesis of glucose (pyruvate or Krebs cycle intermediates) and the other part acetyl-CoA or acetacetyl -CoA.
