A.) The bones of her vertebrae have lost calcium and crumbled enough to begin pinching the nerves leaving her spinal cord.
Answer:1. Pyruvate carboxylase
2. Phosphoenol pyruvate carboxy kinase
Explanation:
The conversion of pyruvate to phosphoenol pyruvate is catalyzed by two enzymes Pyruvate carboxylase and phosphoenol pyruvate carboxy kinase
1. Pyruvate carboxylase reaction
Pyruvate in the cytoplasm enters the mitochondria. Then, carboxylase of pyruvate to oxaloacetate is catalysed by a mitochondrial enzyme, pyruvate carboxylase. It needs the co-enzymes biotin and ATP.
The oxaloacetate formed has to be transported from the mitochondrial to the cytosol because further reaction of gluconeogenesis are taking place in cytosol.
2. Phoaphoenol pyruvate carboxy kinase (PEPCK)
In the cytoplasm, PEPCK enzyme then converts oxaloacetate to phoaphoenol pyruvate by removing a molecule of CO2. GTP or ITP donates the phosphate group.
The net effect of these two reactions is the conversion of pyruvate to phoaphoenol pyruvate. This circumverts the irreversible step in glycolysis catalyzed by pyruvate kinase (step 9 if glycolysis)

The organelle the question is referring to is called the chloroplast. I hope this helps; have a good evening!
Answer: false, for example, if a frog eats flies, and the flies are land animals, if they go extinct the frogs could die off, meaning any fish or water dwellers that eat the frogs can starve and cause a large chain reaction.
Hope this helps ^^
