Question:
A---enzyme A------>B----enzyme B------>C
Refer to the metabolic pathway illustrated above. If A, B, and C are all required for growth, a strain that is mutant for the gene-encoding enzyme A would be able to grow on medium supplemented with _____.
A) nutrient A only
B) nutrient B only
C) nutrient C only
D) nutrients A and C
Answer:
B) nutrient B only
Explanation:
The mutant has a mutation in the gene that codes for the enzyme A. Therefore, this mutant would not be able to convert the substance A into B. Without the presence of substance B, the final product can not be formed. However, if the mutant is supplemented with the substrate "B", it can convert the B into the final product (substance C). Therefore, the mutant would be able to grow in the medium to which the already prepared substance B has been added.

Escuse me but whats the question
Ventilation is the act of moving/pushing air into and out of the lungs.
The presented picture shows 4 trophic levels of the ecosystem.
The first level is made out of primary producers, plants. The second level is made out of herbivores that feed on the plants. The third level is made out of predators that eat herbivores.
The fourth trophic level is made out carnivores that eat other carnivores.
In our case, the only organism belonging to the fourth trophic level is the wolf.
