The process by which organisms create sugars (specifically glucose) from non-carbohydrate precursors is known as gluconeogenesis.
- The only energy source used by the brain, testes, erythrocytes, and renal medulla is glucose, with the exception of ketone bodies during fasting. There are three highly exergonic stages in glycolysis. Hexokinase, phosphofructokinase, and pyruvate kinase are among the enzymes involved in these additional regulatory stages. In biological processes, both forward and backward reactions are possible.
- Similar to glycolysis, but with the process going the other way, is gluconeogenesis. Fructose-1,6-bP, glucose-6-P, and pyruvate all undergo fairly spontaneous conversions in the process of gluconeogenesis, which is why these reactions are tightly controlled.
- For the organism to function properly, energy conservation is crucial. Gluconeogenesis is suppressed when there is an abundance of energy available.
Therefore, gluconeogenesis conserve more energy.

Answer:
The correct answer is "the S layer may play a role in protecting cells from viruses and predatory bacteria found in nature but not in laboratory cultures".
Explanation:
The S-layer (surface layer) is a part of the cell's envelope comprised of of identical proteins or glycoproteins that could be found in archaes and some bacterias in nature. The function of the S-layer is unknown, however the fact that is only seen in nature suggest that it may play a role in protecting cells from viruses and predatory bacteria found in nature but not in laboratory cultures. It is likely that archaes and bacteria synthesize the S-layer when they recognize viruses and predatory bacteria in nature, the S-layer is not synthesized in laboratory cultures because these pathogens are not present.
