Describe how C. parvum obtains the glucose it needs for glycolysis after it has infected another cell. Explain the role of lacta
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

C. parvum takes energy from glucose which is present in the digestive tract after the process of glycolysis.

Lactate dehydrogenase which is responsible for the conversion of lactate into pyruvate molecule.

Explanation:

C. parvum is a protozoa that lives as a parasite in the digestive tract of animals. They take nutrients from the cell which are present in the form of glucose. C. parvum uses a specific type of enzyme i. e. lactate dehydrogenase which is responsible for the conversion of lactate into pyruvate and also helps in the production of ATP through glycolysis process. In this process, the glucose molecule is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate, two molecules of ATP, two molecules of NADH, and two molecules of water. So C. parvum takes ATP from that way from the host cells.

A population of rabbits inhabits an island that has an active volcano. The volcano erupted and covered the island destroying mos
crimeas [40]

The population of rabbits on the volcanic island in big portion will dye out, some as a direct consequence from the volcanic eruption, and some because of the lack of food resources. Because the food will be much more scarce, the rabbits will become much smaller, thus needing less food, and also the reproduction process will be much slower and delayed, and as the island recovers from the eruption, the small remaining population of rabbits will start adapting on the new food sources. Once the rabbits are adapted to the new food resources their population will start rising again.

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

E. It takes a picture of the brain according to oxygen levels. More oxygen in an area indicates more activity in that area.

Explanation:

Haemoglobin is diamagnetic when oxygenated but paramagnetic when deoxygenated. This distinction in magnetic characteristics leads to tiny variations in the blood MR signal. Since blood oxygenation differs, these variations can be used to identify brain activity depending on the concentrations of neural activity.
