Hydroxyl group of serin act as a side chain enzyme. Glucose 1- phosphate is converted to glucose 6- phosphate by the enzyme phosphoglucomutase.

Those tissues also house the enzyme glucose 6- phosphatase, which  converted to glucose 6- phosphate into free glucose that is secreted into the blood ,  thereby restoring blood glucose levels to normal. It is intracelluar form of blood glucose.

Phosphorylation traps the glucose by placing a negative charge on the molecule , preventing its diffusion back across the cell membrane into the blood. Hexokinase enzyme acts on glucose and converts to glucose 6-phosphate.

How can use of fertilizers affect respiratory health?
nirvana33 [79]

Answer: C) They can contain contaminants that can enter the air during storms or high winds.

Explanation: A is wrong because I got it wrong (Sorry, can't give much explanation there).

B is wrong because water contamination does not directly relate to respiratory health.

D is wrong because fertilizers can impact respiratory health (Explanation seems lack-luster, but I feel like this is common sense).

Hope this helps :)
