They are related mother to child. mtDNA is DNA contained in the mitochondria, and does not change from mother to child. So, it could be a grandma and her grandchild if she had a daughter, or a mother and her child.

Answer:

Mother and her child or grandmother and her grandchild.

Explanation:

The mt DNA is the extra chromosomal DNA. They sometimes inherited to the offspring. The mt DNA passes only from mother to child. Because the mother's egg and sperm DNA take part in fertilisation. The sperm mt DNA destroys in the enzymatic action of the egg. Therefore, only maternal mt DNA is transmitted to the next generation, not the paternal mt DNA. mt DNA is helpful to know the phylogeny of animals. If two people have the same mt DNA, the relation between them is a mother and her son/daughter or grandmother and her grandson/granddaughter.

When carbohydrate consumption exceeds the body's immediate needs for energy, glycogenesis ____________ .
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

When carbohydrate consumption exceeds the body's immediate needs for energy, glycogenesis  decreases.

The process of conversation of stored glycogen in the liver and muscles  to glucose is Glycogenesis. It takes place when the blood glucose drops,below certain levels and the body cells need glucose for biochemical activities.Therefore, when there are excess CHO consumption,more glucose would be in the blood,and thus no need for glycogenesis.(breakdown of glycogen)

Glycogen storage space in the liver and muscles is limited. When glycogen stores are full, use of glucose for energy __Increases__________ and oxidation of fat for energy ___decreases_________ .

Definitely, this is a simple logic.As the storage for glycogen is limited,excess glucose  move into the blood, since they can not be converted to glycogen.The glucose is expended through cellular reduce the amount in the blood. Therefore, Gluconeogenesis, the production of glucose from non-CHO substances drops. Hence beta- oxidation drops.

Overall, when carbohydrate intake is excessive, lipogenesis increases.The process of converting excess CHO to fatty acids.Biochemically it is the process of converting the Carbon precursor of acetyl co -A to fatty acids.Therefore this increases to synthesized more fatty acids from CHO
