Protein kinase a, which stimulates glycogen degradation, is activated directly bym cyclic AMP.

<h3>What is glycogen?</h3>
  • Animals, fungi, and bacteria all use the multibranched polysaccharide of glucose known as glycogen to store energy.
  • The primary form of glucose storage in the body is represented by the polysaccharide structure.
  • Our cells primarily use glucose as fuel.
  • The liver and muscles store the glucose when the body doesn't need to use it for energy.
  • Glycogen is the name given to this form of glucose that is stored and is composed of several linked glucose molecules.
  • Although only liver glycogen directly contributes to the release of glucose into the circulation, maintaining a healthy blood glucose concentration is one of glycogen's key functions.
  • The body uses glycogen as a major energy reserve.
  • For instance, liver glycogen controls homeostasis and blood sugar levels.
  • On the other hand, muscle glycogen aids in physical exercise by allowing skeletal muscles to contract.

Which of the following statements about the meiosis are correct? Select all that apply. Select all that apply. Sister chromatids
pychu [463]

Answer:

  • Sister chromatids are not homologous chromosomes.
  • Crossing over occurs between non-sister chromatids.

Explanation:

  1. "<em>Sister chromatids are not homologous chromosomes</em>". IT APPLIES.
  • One chromatid is a chromatin strand that got thick after folding.  The chromatin strand is the DNI double helix associated with histones.  Before cellular division, the chromatin strand generates a copy or clon, so both of the daughter cells can get the same genetic information. These two strands keep joint together by a centromere. The chromosome is conformed by the chromatin strand and its copy, condensated and joint by the centromere. It looks X-shaped.  The chromatin strand and its clon are known as sister chromatids, and they are together on the same chromosome. So one chromosome is composed of two chromatids.
  • Homologous chromosomes are those that give information for the same trait, but this information is not necessarily the same. For example, both homologous chromosomes might give information for hair color trait, but one of them gives information for brown hair and the other one gives information for black hair.

2. "<em>Crossing over occurs between non-sister chromatids"</em>. IT APPLIES.

  • Crossing-over occurs <u>between two homologous chromosomes</u> in the equatorial plane, that makes the daughter cells to be genetically different from the original one.  

3.  "Sister chromatids are found on two different homologs". IT DOES NOT APPLY.

  • The chromatin strand and its clon, known as sister chromatids, are together on the same chromosome. <u>So one chromosome is composed of two chromatids. </u>

4. <em>"A chiasma forms between four molecules of double-stranded DNA on duplicated homologous chromosomes". </em>IT DOES NOT APPLY

  • Chiasma is the point where two chromatids interchange genetic information making a place to new genetic material or information that will be inherited to descendants. Chiasma allows the crossing-over between <u>two homologous chromatids</u>, one of each parent.

Deposition is the geological process in which sediments, soil and rocks are added to a landform or land mass. Wind, ice, water, and gravity transport previously weathered surface material, which, at the loss of enough kinetic energy in the fluid, is deposited, building up layers of sediment.

Identify the structure you are consuming when you eat each of the following vegetables. Match the words in the left column to th
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

a. stem 1: Asparagus

b. taproot: 5. Carrot

c. lateral buds: 2. Brussels sprouts

d. modified stem: 6. Potato

e. leaf (petiole and blade): 4. Spinach    

f. petiole: 3. Celery

Explanation:

A plant stem is one of the structural axes of vascular plants that holds structures such as leaves, flowers, and fruits. The stem also transports water and dissolved (organic and inorganic) nutrients between the roots and the shoots. In some plants, the stem is modified in order to carry out other functions (e.g., storage, vegetative propagation, protection, etc). Potatoes are modified stems (i.e., stem tubers) ​that are connected by small stem sections known as stolons, and serve as food storage organs. A taproot is a central, and dominant root from which other roots sprout, which can be used by the plant to store water and food (e.g., in carrots and turnips). Lateral buds or axillary buds are meristematic regions growing from the axils of the leaves at the intersection of the leaf and stem, below the terminal bud. Leaves are composed of the 1-blade, also known as the lamina, which is the largest part of the leaf, and 2-the petiole, which is a stalk that supports the blade and connects it to the plant stem. Celery petioles play the same functions as a plant stem by acting as transport and storage organs.
