Answer: Plankton

Explanation:

The fuels such as oils and natural gas are fossil fuels that is burnt to obtain energy. Old and dead organic matter( plankton, biomass, plants and animals) gets buried deep inside the ocean and compression takes takes place for over many years.

This process helps in the formation of the fossil fuels such as oils and natural gas. Its extraction takes place by squeezing of plankton.

Much of the regulation of gluconeogenesis is a result of the inhibition of ________. Much of the regulation of gluconeogenesis i
Monica [59]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option- Glycolysis.

Explanation:

Gluconeogenesis is a metabolic pathway which synthesizes glucose from non-sugar precursors. This pathway is activated in the low concentration of glucose due to less intake or completely absent to conserve energy.

This pathway is somewhat the reverse of the glycolysis when excess energy is present as a result of glycolysis, gluconeogenesis is inhibited and when no energy is present, gluconeogenesis is activated.

Thus, option- glycolysis is the correct answer.
