3 0

Complete question:

Postganglionic neurons of the autonomic nervous system __________.

a) stimulate skeletal muscle

b) stimulate preganglionic neurons

c) have cell bodies located within autonomic ganglia

d) are afferent

Answer:

c) have cell bodies located within autonomic ganglia

Explanation:

A group of cell bodies of neurons in the peripheral nervous system is called a ganglion. Most of the motor pathways of the autonomic division have two motor neurons in series. The first neurons in the series are called preganglionic neurons. Their cell bodies are present in CNS. The second neurons of the autonomic motor pathway are called postganglionic neurons. The cell bodies of these neurons are present in the same autonomic ganglion.

Which enzyme(s) involved in fatty acid synthesis utilize ATP? Select all that apply.
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

a. Acetyl CoA carboxylase  

Explanation:

Much of the fatty acids used by the body is supplied by the diet, excessive amounts of carbohydrates and protein obtained from the diet can be converted to fatty acids and stored as triglycerides. Fatty acid synthesis occurs mainly in the liver and mammary glands, and to a lesser extent in adipose tissue and kidney, the process incorporates acetyl CoA carbons into the forming fatty acid chain using ATP and NADPH.

The acetyl portion of acetyl CoA is transported to cytosol as citrate, produced by condensation of oxaloacetate and acetyl CoA, the first reaction of the citric acid cycle, this occurs when the concentration of mitochondrial citrate is high, observed when there is a high concentration of ATP and isocitrate dehydrogenase is inhibited.  The increase of citrate and ATP favors the synthesis of fatty acids, since this pathway needs both. Acetyl CoA should be converted to malonyl CoA. Carboxylation is catalyzed by acetyl CoA carboxylase and requires ATP, this reaction is the regulated step in fatty acid synthesis: it is inactivated by products, malonyl CoA and palmitoyl CoA, and activated by citrate, another regulatory mechanism is reversible phosphorylation of enzyme, which makes it inactive due to the presence of adrenaline / glucagon

what will happen if one of the levels in the biological organization will not perform its function properly?​
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

It would affect the functionality of the other levels including the organism

Explanation:

The level of biological organization is a hierarchical step consisting of how a multicellular organism forms. According to this level of organization, CELLS are the simplest unit of life and the collection of cells with a similar function is termed TISSUE. Tissues form ORGANS, organs form ORGAN SYSTEMS and finally, a collection of all the systems in the body forms the ORGANISM.

Based on this, one would observe that each level is related to the next in such a way that one forms from the other. Hence, if one of the levels in the biological organization will not perform its function properly, the other levels will be affected. For example, if the kidney cells do not perform it's function, it would affect the functionality of the kidney tissues, kidney organ, the excretory system, and the organism at large.
