The right answer is A. uses pyruvic acid

Pyruvate, the final product of glycolysis, follows different catabolic pathways according to the nature of the organism and the metabolic conditions.

- Lactic fermentation: anaerobic glycolysis in the muscle in contraction or in certain tissue types (brain, retina, erythrocytes).

- Alcoholic fermentation: anaerobic glycolysis in yeast and certain microorganisms.

- The oxidative decarboxylation followed by the Krebs cycle: oxidation of pyruvate to CO2 and H2O in animals, plants and many prokaryotic aerobic cells.

Ans.

Aerobic respiration involves complete breakdown of a glucose molecule in the presence of oxygen to generate energy, in the form of ATP molecules (36 molecules of ATP).

On the other hand, anaerobic respiration involves partial breakdown of a glucose molecule in the absence of oxygen to generate energy as ATP molecules (2 molecules of ATP).

The common feature, shared by both  aerobic and anaerobic respiration is use of pyruvate (pyruvic acid). The pyruvic acid is formed by the process of glycolysis, which is common for both the processes.  

In aerobic respiration, pyruvic acid is used to form acetyl coenzyme A that enters the Kreb's cycle, while during the anaerobic respiration, pyruvic acid is used to make alcohol or lactic acid to regenerate NAD+.

Thus, the correct answer is option A). 'uses pyruvic acid.'

Different variant forms of a gene are referred to as ______________
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Alleles.

Explanation:

Gene may be defined as the functional segment of DNA that codes for the particular protein. Genes are responsible for the phenotype and genotype of the organism. Each gene may exist in multiple forms.

The variants forms of the genes are known as alleles. Alleles are the alternative form of the same gene. A single gene may have atleast two alternative form. These alternative forms together contribute the functional aspect of the organism.

Thus, the correct answer is alleles.

"Tryptophan self-controls its synthesis." Justify this statement.
Dimas [21]
Tryptophan self-controls its synthesis. If we have a large amount of tryptophan in the sense that it exceeds, tryptophan would act as a co-repressor which prevents synthesis of more enzymes for its production. Hope this answers the question.

If acetyl-CoA is labeled with 14C at its methyl group, how many rounds of the cycle are required before 14CO2 is released?
Elis [28]

Answer:

14 CO₂ will be released in the second turn of the cycle

Explanation:

<u>Complete question goes like this</u>, "<em>The CO2 produced in one round of the citric acid cycle does not originate in the acetyl carbons that entered that round. If acetyl-CoA is labeled with 14C at the carbonyl carbon, how many rounds of the cycle are required before 14CO2 is released?</em>"

<u>The answer to this is</u>;

  • The labeled Acetyl of Acetyl-CoA becomes the terminal carbon (C4) of succinyl-CoA (which becomes succinate that is a symmetrical four carbon diprotic dicarboxylic acid from alpha-ketoglutarate).
  • Succinate converts into fumarate. Fumarate converts into malate, and malate converts into oxaloacetate. Because succinate is symmetrical, the oxaloacetate can have the label at C1 or C4.
  • When these condense with acetyl-CoA to begin the second round of the cycle, both of these carbons are discharged as CO2 during the isocitrate dehydrogenase and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase reactions (formation of alpha-ketoglutarate and succinyl-CoA respectively).

Hence, 14 CO₂ will be released in the second turn of the cycle.
