Answer: acetyl-CoA

Explanation:

Glucose plays a central role in energy and carbohydrate metabolism. Glycolysis - Route of degradation of 1 molecule of Glucose in 2 of Pyruvate. Pyruvate can follow 3 paths:

1) Be reduced to Ethanol - Alcoholic fermentation

2) Be reduced to Lactate - Lactic Fermentation

3) Be completely oxidized to CO2 and H2O - Citric Acid Cycle (Performed by animals, vegetables and many microbial cells under aerobic conditions). Glycolysys is linked to the citric acid cycle via the production of acetyl-CoA.

Under aerobic conditions, however, pyruvate is not reduced but rather oxidized in the mitochondria by enzymatic complex pyruvate dehydrogenase (also called pyruvate decarboxylase) with the formation of acetyl-CoA and the release of one molecule of CO2 per every peroxidized pyruvate.

Translation and protein synthesis is occurring at the ribosome. If the tRNA anticodon being matched at the ribosome is AUG, what
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

The correct answer would be - option D) UAC.

Explanation:

By the process of the translation mRNA turns into protein as mRNA is considered as blueprint of the protein. During translation tRNA contains anti-codons or amino acid this anti-codon is correspond to the codon of mRNA.

The anticodon of tRNA which is present at the accept site or anticodon of tRNA molecule is complementary to the codon present in the mRNA which means A pairs with U and G pairs with C only.

Thus, the correct answer would be - option D) UAC.
