Answer:

Glycogen synthase is phosphorylated at only one site.

Explanation:

Glycogen synthase has multiple sites where phosphorylation can occur. Glycogen synthase may have 9 or more sites where it can be phosphorylated as a result of which it's activity is down regulated. It simply means that the regulation of this enzyme does not occur through binary on/off switching, in fact it's activity is modulated over a wide range in response to various signals.

In contrast to glycogen phosphorylase which gets activated when it is phosphorylated at it's serine residues, glycogen synthase gets inactivated by phosphorylation.

As soon as another enzyme GSK3β phosphorylates glycogen synthase, it gets inactivated as a result of which glycogen synthesis halts in the liver.

The overall goal of IPM is to reduce the environmental and health risks of pesticides within social and economic constraints.

Fix: The scope of IPM implementation will continue to change greatly in the future. What began as limited approaches to promote integration of control methods for key pests and provide guidelines for decisions regarding pesticide applications is evolving to an ecologically-based systems approach.
