Answer:

The living organism is the organism that responds to external stimulus, moves, grows, respire, reproduce, eat and excrete.  

Movement - An organism moving from place to place.

Respiration - The release of energy from glucose, occurring in every cell. we respire in order to produce energy  

Sensitivity - the ability to detect and respond to stimuli. When we touch something hot, we remove our hand suddenly.  

Growth - The production of new cells in an organism.

Reproduction - The process which is used to create offspring similar to parents.

Excretion - The release of harmful substances from the body. We excrete carbon dioxide when we exhale.

Nutrition - Consumption of food for energy. We get nutrition by eating three meals a day.

A living thing is something that needs food, water, air, and shelter. Some examples are plants, since they need water; food, which they get from the sun; fresh air; and shelter. Just like humans clearly need water, food, air, and shelter.

Since fibrous roots grow from the side of monocot plants, the plant roots observed on the corn stalk are fibrous roots.

<h3>What are fibrous roots?</h3>

Fibrous roots are roots of plants which are usually seen on the surafce above ground and which grow from the side of plants.

Monocotyledons such as corn have fibrous roots.

The fibrous roots help to provide support and strength to the plant.

Therefore, the plant roots observed on the corn stalk are fibrous roots.

Which enzyme(s) involved in fatty acid synthesis utilize ATP? Select all that apply.
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

a. Acetyl CoA carboxylase  

Explanation:

Much of the fatty acids used by the body is supplied by the diet, excessive amounts of carbohydrates and protein obtained from the diet can be converted to fatty acids and stored as triglycerides. Fatty acid synthesis occurs mainly in the liver and mammary glands, and to a lesser extent in adipose tissue and kidney, the process incorporates acetyl CoA carbons into the forming fatty acid chain using ATP and NADPH.

The acetyl portion of acetyl CoA is transported to cytosol as citrate, produced by condensation of oxaloacetate and acetyl CoA, the first reaction of the citric acid cycle, this occurs when the concentration of mitochondrial citrate is high, observed when there is a high concentration of ATP and isocitrate dehydrogenase is inhibited.  The increase of citrate and ATP favors the synthesis of fatty acids, since this pathway needs both. Acetyl CoA should be converted to malonyl CoA. Carboxylation is catalyzed by acetyl CoA carboxylase and requires ATP, this reaction is the regulated step in fatty acid synthesis: it is inactivated by products, malonyl CoA and palmitoyl CoA, and activated by citrate, another regulatory mechanism is reversible phosphorylation of enzyme, which makes it inactive due to the presence of adrenaline / glucagon
