Answer: c. The metacarpals and phalanges.

Explanation:

A palm is a multifingered appendage. It is the characteristic feature of forelims in primates. The skeleton of each palm includes the 5 metacarpals and 5 phalanges. The metacarpals are attach to the carpals or wrist bone. The phalanges are the finger bones.

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

An amino acid activates the repressor so that the repressor binds to the operator and prevents transcription.

Explanation:

In an operon, promoter is followed by operator which is finally followed by the structural genes to be transcribed. RNA Polymerase binds to the promoter and initiates transcription. A repressor can negatively control the transcription process by binding to the operator so that the RNA Polymerase is not able to move forward and transcription is halted.

For example: in trp operon, tryptophan amino acid binds to the repressor molecule which leads to change in repressor's shape. The repressor is now able to bind to the operator and prevent transcription.

Which is the pair of the enzyme activities most significantly affected by glucagon- and insulin-dependent phosphorylation and de
prisoha [69]

Answer:

b. Phosphofructokinase;  Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase

Explanation:

Glucagon is a hormone which functions to initiate gluconeogenesis whwreas insulin functions to initiate glycolysis.

Fructose-2,6-bisphosphate (F26BP) is an allosteric regulator of the <em>glycolytic and gluconeogenic enzymes phosphofructokinase-1 (PFK-1) and fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase-1).</em>

It stimulates glycolysis and inhibits gluconeogenesis by binding to its allosteric site on phosphofructokinase-1 reducing its affinity for the allosteric inhibitors ATP and citrate .

It is formed by phosphorylation of fructose-6-phosphate catalyzed by  <em>phosphofructokinase-2</em> and is broken down by <em>fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase </em>which are two separate enzymatic activities of a single, bifunctional protein (PFK-2/FBPase-2).

Phosphorylation of PFK-2/FBPase-2 due to glucagon release enhances its FBPase-2 activity thereby stimulating gluconeogenesis and inhibiting glycolysis.

Dephosphsorylation of PFK-2/FBPase-2 due to insulin release enhances its PFK-2 activity, thereby stimulating glycolysis and inhibiting gluconeogenesis.

Which process converts the carbon in the form of carbohydrate sugars into carbon dioxide gas?
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

Its Photosynthesis (C)

Explanation:

it takes the energy of sunlight and combines water and carbon dioxide to produce sugar and oxygen as a waste product. The reactions of respiration take sugar and consume oxygen to break it down into carbon dioxide and water, releasing energy.

Have a great day :)
