Answer:
The middle carbon atom of pyruvate in the TCA cycle becomes the carboxyl carbon of acetate and hence the newly added (upper) carboxyl group in citrate
Explanation:
Before entering the TCA cycle, pyruvate is converted into Acetyl-CoA by oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate. 1st two carbons of glucose to be fully oxidized. This reaction is catalyzed by Pyruvate dehydrogenase.
The middle carbon atom of the pyruvate in the TCA cycle becomes the carboxyl carbon of the acetate as the carboxyl group is removed from the pyruvate , releasing CO2. NAD is reduced to NADH. Acetyl group is transferred to coenzyme-A , resulting in acetyl coA
<span>It is a common misconception that elephants existed the same time as the dinosaurs did when in fact they have evolved 3 or 5 million years after these creatures.
The tusks of the elephant would probably be the structure not present in early elephants. It is only through evolution that these tusks grew. Some scientists have hypothesized that these tusks develop from the elephants' incisors.

I think the answer is glycogen.Glycogen functions as one of the two forms of long-term energy reserves, with the other form being triglyceride stores in adipose tissue. In human body, glycogen is made and stored primarily in the cells of the liver and skeletal muscle. In the muscles it is the primary fuel the muscles use for energy production.
Hi, In my opinion, <u>bat</u> will be the most closely related to hawk.
<h2>
<u>Why?</u></h2>
This is because, when we consider the photo of a bat and a hawk, we notice the similarities like:-
• Wings- They have nearly the same short wings decreasing the area of contact with air and enabling higher flight area.
• Presence of small snouted beak-like structure and presence of less or more similar color.
• Both live in trees and are normally not companiable with humans.
• Hawks and bats are both having a similar anatomy, not body, I meant that they have similar positioning of organs like stomach, pancreas etc.
• They have the sense of locating prey miles away, enabling easier locating of food.
Hope this helps...
