Natural organic compounds produced by plants that are poisonous, particularly to insects, are known as <u>Botanicals</u>.

Botanical insecticides are naturally occurring chemicals (insect toxins) extracted or derived from plants or minerals. They are also called natural insecticides. Organic gardeners will choose these insecticides, in some cases, over synthetic organic materials.

Pesticides are substances that are meant to control pests. This includes herbicide, insecticide, nematicide, rodenticide, bactericide, insect repellent, fungicide, and lampricide.

Examples of plants that are sources of commercially available botanical pesticides include pyrethrum (Tanacetum cinerariifolium), neem (Azadirachta indica), sabadilla (Schoenocaulon officinale), tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) and ryania (Ryania speciosa)

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

The correct answer is the formation of pyruvate from glucose willl be energetically less favorable.

Explanation:

According to the question matunt yeast has a shorter glycolytic pathay catalysing a follwing reaction

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate+H2O+NAD+ = 3-phosphoglycerate

So in the mutatant the formation of 1,3- bisphosphoglycerate is not occurring.The glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate is directly converted into 3-phosphoglycerate.

As a result the substrate level phosphorylation step that deals with formation of 3-phosphoglycerate from 1,3 bisphosphoglycerate is not occurring.

From this point of view it can be said that less energy will be formed in the mutant during glycolysis than that of normal one.

So the formation of pyruvate from glucose will be energetically less favorable.
