The correct answer is that mutant cells will exhibit diminished oxygen consumption; decreased glycolysis results in decreased Kreb's cycle and electron transport chain.
The PFK2 enzyme catalyzes the generation of F26BP, this binds with the allosteric site of PFK-1 and increases the affinity of PFK-1 with F6P and also decreases the affinity of allosteric inhibitors citrate and ATP to PFK-1. Thus, PFK-1 will combine with F6P at a greater rate.
This ultimately results in more glycolysis, thus, more ETC and more consumption of O2. If there is no PFK2, then there will be a reduction in glycolysis, TCA, ETC, and consumption of oxygen.
The PFK2 is an enzyme accountable for monitoring the rates of gluconeogenesis and glycolysis in the human body. In the absence of glycolysis, there will be a reduction in TCA, ETC, and consumption of O2.
Answer:
Oxygen molecules in the tissues of the lung diffuse into the blood because the concentration of oxygen in the lung's tissues is more than the concentration of oxygen in the blood.
Explanation:
Diffusion is the movement of molecules from the region of higher concentration of the molecule to the region of lower concentration of the same molecule. Molecules in diffusion move <em>downward the concentration</em> <em>gradient</em> created by difference in concentration between two regions until an <em>equilibrium (equal concentration in the two regions)</em> is established.
Oxygen molecules diffuse into the tissues of the lung when an organism breathes-in during the process of breathing. The molecules in the now oxygen-rich tissues eventually start diffusing into the blood in the lung because the blood passing through the lung is always de-oxygenated or has lower oxygen concentration compared to the tissues of the lung.
Oxygenated blood moves into the heart, pumps round the body by the heart, gets depleted of oxygen and eventually find its way back to the lung where the process is repeated.
Diffusion of oxygen from the tissues of the lung into the blood will keep happening as long as oxygen keeps getting dissolved into the lung's tissues and an equilibrium is yet to be established between the tissues and the blood.
Answer:
C. the settings shown in C
Explanation:
cohesion is the property of water molecules keeps water molecules in a combined state by sharing of bonds between them at the atomic level.
Answer:
Solution
For figure (a)
During interval AB Velocity is +ve, so the particle is moving in +ve direction, but it is slowing down as acceleration (slope of v-7 curve) is negative.
During interval BC Particle remains at rest as the velocity is zero. Acceleration is also zero.
During interval CD Velocity is -ve, so the particle is moving in -ve direction and is speeding up as acceleration is also negative.
For figure (b),
During interval AB Particle is moving in +ve direction with constant velocity and acceleration is zero.
During interval BC Particle is moving in +ve direction as velocity is +ve, but it slows down until it comes to rest as acceleration is negative.
During interval CD Velocity is -ve so the particle is moving in -ve direction and is speeding up as acceleration is also negatived
