Duchenne's muscular dystrophy is an X-linked inherited disease that caused progressive loss of muscle cells. When the muscle cells die, it will be replaced by fat or connective tissue. Typical microscopic changes that can be found microscopically would be the decreased number of muscle cells and the increased number of fat/connective tissue

Which one of the following statements is true of enzyme catalysts? A) Their catalytic activity is independent of pH. B) They are
muminat

Answer:

D) They can increase the reaction rate for a given reaction by a thousand-fold or more.

Explanation:

Enzymes are like catalysts with the only difference that they are bio-molecules. Biochemical/chemical reactions are slow because of 'transition state barriers' which require a lot of energy to overcome so enzymes rather than overcoming transition state barrier provide an alternate pathway for biochemical reactions which require comparatively less energy. Thus presence of an enzyme leads to an increase in reaction rate because alternate pathway which requires less energy makes the rate of chemical reaction rapid by a thousand-fold or more.

Select the correct sequence concerning glucose catabolism. glycolysis - pyruvate - acetyl - coa - electron transport chain - kre
Natali [406]
The correct sequence is; Glycolysis-pyruvate-acetyl CoA-krebs cycle-electron transport chain. 
Glycolysis is a sequence of reactions for the breakdown of glucose to two molecules of pyruvic acid under aerobic conditions, Krebs cycle is a series of chemical reactions used by all aerobic organisms to release stored energy through the oxidation of acetyl-CoA derived from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into carbon dioxide and chemical energy in the energy carriers, while electron transport chain involves a series of complexes that transfer electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors via redox reactions and couples this transfer with the transfer of protons across a membrane.
