Light energy (from the sun) is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen in the process of photosynthesis.
carbon dioxide + water --> glucose + oxygen
the light energy from the sun is then trapped in the glucose. in order to retrieve the chemical energy stores within the molecule, the bonds have to be broken.
Answer:
a. Acetyl CoA carboxylase
Explanation:
Much of the fatty acids used by the body is supplied by the diet, excessive amounts of carbohydrates and protein obtained from the diet can be converted to fatty acids and stored as triglycerides. Fatty acid synthesis occurs mainly in the liver and mammary glands, and to a lesser extent in adipose tissue and kidney, the process incorporates acetyl CoA carbons into the forming fatty acid chain using ATP and NADPH.
The acetyl portion of acetyl CoA is transported to cytosol as citrate, produced by condensation of oxaloacetate and acetyl CoA, the first reaction of the citric acid cycle, this occurs when the concentration of mitochondrial citrate is high, observed when there is a high concentration of ATP and isocitrate dehydrogenase is inhibited. The increase of citrate and ATP favors the synthesis of fatty acids, since this pathway needs both. Acetyl CoA should be converted to malonyl CoA. Carboxylation is catalyzed by acetyl CoA carboxylase and requires ATP, this reaction is the regulated step in fatty acid synthesis: it is inactivated by products, malonyl CoA and palmitoyl CoA, and activated by citrate, another regulatory mechanism is reversible phosphorylation of enzyme, which makes it inactive due to the presence of adrenaline / glucagon
Answer:
A hope spot is an area of an ocean that needs special protection because of its wildlife and significant underwater habitats. The two group of islands, considered extremely rich in marine biodiversity, are the first places in India to have been added in the list of 50 global 'hope spots'.
Answer:
A.
Explanation:
Older fossils tend to lay in the lower levels of the ground. The further up the fossils are, the more likely you are to find something that looks like today. Think of it as stacking papers with different drawings on them from different ages. Oldest goes on the bottom, newest goes on the top. The older layer stands as more of a foundation point while newer layers are around where we are now.
Endoplasmic reticulum isn’t called the control center of the cell
The answer is B
