Barbara is a research scientist at an organic pest control company. Part of her job is to find foods that ants will eat so the f

oods can be used in ant baits.
Over the last month, Barbara performed an investigation in her lab involving 100 ant mounds. She began by placing equal amounts of corn meal and maple syrup on opposite sides of each mound. Each morning, she measured how much of each food the ants had taken. She then replaced the foods with fresh samples, and repeated the process every day.

Vlada [557]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

pyruvate dehydrogenase is the enzyme which catalysis pyruvate to acetyl Co -A. Thus,it  ensures the formation of link reaction/ bridge reaction for linking glycolysis with Citric acid cycle. Therefore, inhibition of this enzyme, prevent link reaction, and there reduction in pyruvate utilization and therefore prevent the  commencements of Citric acid cycle, with consequent  reduction in glucose oxidation. as there is no  reaction of acetyl Co A (from link reaction from pyruvate )   with 4C oxaloacatate in the kreb Cycle to form Citrate in Kreb's cycle. Thus the heart  depends on fatty acid supply for energy.

Which molecule is less soluble in water--a fat or a phospholipid? Why?
VladimirAG [237]
Fat is less soluble in water compared to phospholipids.
This is because, fat is made up of three molecules of fatty acids which are not polar in nature at all, thus they mixed very poorly with water.
Phospholipids on the other hand has its molecules divided into two distinct regions, the head and the tail region. The head region is hydrophillic and it is polar in nature, that is, it mixes well with water. The tail region is made up of the fatty components  and it is hydrophobic.
Because of this difference in structure, phospholipid will dissolve better in water.
