A classic example of selection in natural populations involves the peppered moth Biston betularia in England. Industrial gases k

illed the lichens and mosses on buildings, trees, etc., and soot deposited on the landscape. Dark-colored moths gained a selective advantage. In this case, one would say that there was selection against the light-colored moths. Which morph, light or dark, would have the highest fitness? (Enter light or dark in the box below.)

Answer:

Dark colored moth

Explanation:

Moths either dark or light live on the bark of the trees. During industrial revolution in England, excessive pollution caused the darkening of bark of trees. Due to this environmental change, some of the light colored moths evolved and turned into dark colored moths. Both bark and moth being dark in color, made the moths untraceable by their predators. While the light colored moths on dark trees were easily recognizable by their predators.

Hence, the dark colored moths possess high fitness.

Which of the following enzymes are involved in coupled reactions in glycolysis? (Select all that apply.) Phosphoglycerate kinase
Len [333]

Answer:

Hexokinase, Phosphofructokinase, Phosphoglycerate kinase and Pyruvate kinase

Explanation:

Coupled reactions are reactions that require energy by one process and is supplied by another; where the energy is transferred from one side of the reaction to the other.

In glycolysis, four (4) reactions undergo coupled reactions

1. Reaction one: which is the phosphorylation of glucose to glucose-6-phosphate coupled to the hydrolysis of ATP to ADP and Pi catalyzed by hexokinase.

2. Reaction three: The phosphorylation of fructose-6-phosphate to fructose-1-6-bisphosphate and the hydrolysis of ATP, catalyzed by phosphofructokinase

3. Reaction seven: Phosphoglycerate kinase catalyzes the conversion of Bisphoglycerate to 3-phoshoglycerate and the production of ATP from ADP

4. Reaction ten: Pyruvate kinase catalyzes the conversion of enol phosphate to the enolic form of pyruvate with the synthesis of ATP.
