Answer:
Explanation:
Normally, under anaerobic condition in yeast, pyruvate produced from glycolysis leads to the production of ethanol as shown below.
pyruvate ⇒ acetaldehyde + NADH ⇒ ethanol + NAD
The pyruvate is converted to acetaldehyde by the enzyme, pyruvate decarboxylase. It should be NOTED that carbon dioxide is released in this step. The acetaldehyde produced in the "first step" is then converted to ethanol by the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase. It must be noted from the above that the steps are irreversible.
If a mutated strain of yeast is unique because it does not produce alcohol and lactic acid (which is referred to as toxic acid in the question); thus having a high level of pyruvate because of the presence of a novel enzyme. <u>The function of this novel enzyme will most likely be the conversion of acetaldehyde in the presence of carbondioxide back to pyruvate; thus making that step reversible</u>. This could be a possible explanation for the high level of pyruvate present in the yeast.
Answer:
Domains
Explanation:
All Biological organism can be classified or placed in a group.
Taxonomy is a branch of science that deals with naming and classification of biological organism based on shared characteristics.
In taxonomy, a domain is the highest order of classification or ranking ,its even higher than the kingdoms.
It is inclusive of all biological grouping.
All cellular organisms can be placed in any of the three domains namely, Bacteria, Archaea and the Eukarya.
Answer:
B- fold incorrectly
Explanation:
Prions are misfolded proteins with the ability to transmit their misfolded shape onto normal variants of the same protein. They characterize several fatal and transmissible neurodegenerative diseases in humans and many other animals.
Answer:
There is no change. Both of the DNA sequence GGT and GGA results in Pro.
