Answer:

Renal cortex

Explanation:

Each kidney is covered by three layers of tissue: the renal fascia, the fat capsule and the fibrous capsule.

The internal anatomy of the kidneys is divided into two zones, the cortex and the renal medulla.

The renal cortex corresponds to the outermost layer, just after the fibrous capsule of the kidney. The cortex has a reddish color and a smooth texture. Damage to the renal cortex will affect urine formation.

Nephrons are found in the renal cortex. The nephron is the basic functional unit of the kidney, responsible for the formation of urine. Each kidney has thousands of nephrons.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae (a yeast species) mutants are available that grow on pyruvate or ethanol, but not sugars or glycerol.
mezya [45]

Answer:

The enzyme is the pyruvate kinase

Explanation:

The designated enzyme can only grow in pyruvate or in ethanol. They are said to be in anaerobic conditions. If the end product of glycolysis is pyruvate and the enzyme that transforms phosphoenol pyruvate into pyruvate is called pyruvate kinase. In a reaction under anaerobic conditions, the pyruvate is transformed into ethanol. So if the pyruvate kinase enzyme is mutated, pyruvate cannot be transformed into ethanol and Saccharomyces cerevisiae could not survive in that medium.
