Answer:
So that oxidation of pyruvate can take place in mitochondria.
Explanation:
Pyruvates is produced in the glycolysis process which occurs in the cytoplasm. So pyruvate is produced in the cytoplasm of the cell. Pyruvate is produced by partial oxidation of glucose and to be fully oxidized it has to enter in the mitochondria.
So after entering the mitochondria the pyruvate first converts into acetyl CoA than this acetyl CoA enters in the citric acid cycle and fully oxidized into CO2. This oxidation generated NADP and FADH2 which provide reducing power during oxidative phosphorylation.
A nucleic acid is made of nucleotides, and nitrogenous bases are a part of a nucleotide.
DNA is a nucleic acid. The nucleotides in DNA are made up of a sugar (deoxyribose), a phosphate group, and one nitrogenous base (which will be either adenine, guanine, cytosine, or thymine).
Hope this helps!!
Deoxyribose is the sugar found in DNA.
DNA is Deoxyribo-Nuclei-Acid
Dominant refers to the relationship between two versions of a gene. Individuals receive two versions of each gene, known as alleles, from each parent. If the alleles of a gene are different, one allele will be expressed; it is the dominant gene. The effect of the other allele, called recessive, is masked.
The offspring that will be produced in the cross would have tortoiseshell fur.
<h3>X-linked traits</h3>
In cats, the male is XY while the female is XX.
Assuming that black fur is caused by the allele B and the orange fur is caused by A
A black female will have the genotype 
An orange male will have the genotype 
Crossing the two: x
Offspring: 
, 
, , and
= tortoiseshell fur female
= tortoiseshell fur male
