Answer:
This question lacks options, options are:
A) ATP
B) NADP
C) Pryuvate
D) glucose
E) acetyl-CoA.
The correct answer is C) Pyruvate.
Explanation:
Pyruvate is a very important compound for the cell since it is a key substrate for energy production and glucose synthesis (neo-glycogenesis), that is, pyruvate is the end product of glucose breakdown in glycolysis. Before entering the mitochondria, it can be converted to lactate, through an anaerobic reaction (in the absence or under oxygen supply) of low performance in energy production, when the main pathway is interfered with. It can also be converted to the amino acid alanine. Within the mitochondria, it can be transformed, by pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH), into acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA), the entry point (substrate) of the Krebs cycle. In addition, by means of pyruvate carboxylase, it can be transformed into oxalacetate, which constitutes the first step in neoglycogenesis.
Yeah the answer above me makes sense...
Well for starters, they do not have leaves which reduces transpiration. They also grow really long roots that can absorb the smallest traces of moisture in the earth.
The tilt of the earth changing would affect the distance to the sun. This, the radiation from the sun, and resulting temperatures, would change as well.
Answer:
The correct answer is A. The larynx moves up against epiglottis when food is swallowed to prevent passage of food into it.
Explanation:
The epiglottis is a moist, cartilaginous structure that is part of the cartilaginous skeleton of the larynx. It also marks the boundary between the oropharynx and the laryngopharynx. The epiglottis obstructs the passage of the bolus at the time of swallowing preventing it from going to the respiratory system.
Larynx closure occurs when the vestibular and vocal folds approach the midline during swallowing. Occasionally, when you eat very fast, solid foods or liquids can enter the larynx.
