In order to make a proper investigation using the scientific method we have to follow the following statements.

  • Create three or more groups of flamingos. One control group were the flamingos will be fed by their occasional diet. A second group with a diet with no artificial or natural dye, as β-Carotene, which is high present in seaweeds. The third group will have a diet with a high amount of β-Carotene.
  • The color of the groups will be analyzed to see the changing of pigmentation by time. If the group which is fed by B-Carotene increases the pigmentation, it might indicate a diet factor.
  • As counterproof, a sample of DNA of the groups has to be taken. If is there any pattern between the groups of no-colored flamingos and a pattern of colored ones. It can indicate a genetic factor. If not, the diet can be responsible for it.

Why or how are calories "wasted" during gluconeogenesis?
ira [324]

luconeogenesis is a ubiquitous process, present in plants, animals, fungi, bacteria, and other microorganisms.[2] In vertebrates, gluconeogenesis takes place mainly in the liver and, to a lesser extent, in the cortex of the kidneys. In ruminants, this tends to be a continuous process.[3] In many other animals, the process occurs during periods of fasting, starvation, low-carbohydrate diets, or intense exercise. The process is highly endergonic until it is coupled to the hydrolysis of ATP or GTP, effectively making the process exergonic. For example, the pathway leading from pyruvate to glucose-6-phosphate requires 4 molecules of ATP and 2 molecules of GTP to proceed spontaneously. Gluconeogenesis is often associated with ketosis. Gluconeogenesis is also a target of therapy for type 2 diabetes, such as the antidiabetic drug, metformin, which inhibits glucose formation and stimulates glucose uptake by cells.[4] In ruminants, because dietary carbohydrates tend to be metabolized by rumen organisms, gluconeogenesis occurs regardless of fasting, low-carbohydrate diets, exercise, etc.[5]
