Which is not the precursor for the de novo purine biosynthesis?

Biology
1 answer:
amm18121 year ago
7 0

The correct option is (B) Lysine.

The precursors glutamine (N2 and N9), glycine (C4, C5, and N7), aspartate (N1), co2 (C6), and folate are used to create the purine ring (C2 and C8). All are precursors to the purine ring, with the exception of lysine.

How is Purine synthesized de novo?

  • In all cells, the cytosol is where purine biosynthesis takes place.
  • There are 11 steps that are catalyzed by enzymes that build the purine ring. Each enzyme includes several monomers because it is oligomeric.
  • The reaction does not release the intermediate products that are created. They are instead transported to the next enzyme in the process.
  • The biosynthesis process in the human body can provide the body's need for purine in metabolic processes. Clinical symptoms might become unpleasant if purine synthesis is inadequate or if biosynthetic routes are aberrant.

Darwin proposed as the process that causes evolution to occur.
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

natural selection

Explanation:

Darwin proposed <u>natural selection</u> as the process that causes evolution.

According to the theory of natural selection, the environment naturally selects for genes that confer fitness to organisms over every other gene. In other words, organisms that are able to adapt to an environment survive and contribute more to the subsequent generation while those that are poorly adapted contribute less and gradually fade away from the population.

<em>For example, when a drug is taken a particular pathogen, the susceptible ones among the pathogen's population will die off while the ones with the resistance gene survive, reproduce, and pass on the resistance gene to the subsequent generation. Consequently, the same drug might not work at all for the new generations of the pathogen because the gene that confers fitness has been selected for.</em>

This hypothesis states that viruses originated from more complex cells<br> Select one:
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The hypothesis that states that viruses originated from more complex cells is called the regressive hypothesis.

Explanation:

The regressive hypothesis -also called <u>degenerative hypothesis</u>- raises the possibility that viruses originally were cells that behaved as symbionts or parasites of other cells, and this condition of dependence could have originated the disappearance of genes, becoming structures formed by nucleic acid inside a viral capsid (virus).

Some evidence gathered to support this theory suggests that some bacteria, such as rickettsia, need to parasitize a cell in order to replicate, just as viruses do.
