When an animal confronts a "fight-or-flight" situation, the release of epinephrine promotes glycogen breakdown in the liver, hea

rt and skeletal muscle. The end product of glycogen breakdown in the liver is glucose, but in muscle, it is pyruvate. What is the reason for the different products of glycogen breakdown in the two tissues? What is the advantage of these specific glycogen breakdown routes to an animal that must fight or flee?

Answer: and Explanation:

A.)The reason for the different products of glycogen breakdown in the two tissues is that glucose 6-phosphotase which is

a known enzyme that brings about hydrolysis of glucose 6-phosphate as a result of the creation of a phosphate group and free glucose is not available in heart and skeletal muscle, therefore,any glucose 6-phosphotase that is produced will just enters the glycolytic pathway and get converted to lactate through pyruvate, in the absence of Oxygen O2.

B) Whenever a situation involving fight or flight arises, the concentration of glycolytic precursors becomes high in order to prepare for muscular activity. Since the membrane is impermeable to any charged species, and at the same time glucose 6-phosphotase enzyme cannot be moved through the glucose transporter, then there cannot be a release of Phosphorylated intermediates from the cell. The blood glucose level must be maintained by the liver by releasing of glucose.

glucose that is later formed from glucose 6-phosphotase then enters the bloodstream.

Lions live in the south Sahara Desert in breeding groups called prides. Females tend to stay in their pride, but males may leave
kotykmax [81]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

This mechanism describes the necessity of males to lead and form their own pride to show their dominance and power. That is why young lions leave and wander, and when they are ready, they fight for their right to lead their own pride.

So yes, Females tend to stay in their pride, but males may leave to join another pride. And that is the male instinct for lions in the wildlife.

On the other hand, males tend to stay in the same pride, taking care of their cubs, raising them, and hunting. That is what they do best, hunt animals to feed the pride and the cubs.

First of all sodium do not act as a functional group and second sodium has high tendency to form bond with high electronegative element.Carbon is not an electronegative element.

 The other mentioned functional groups in the question such as hydoxyl group,phosphate group and carbonyl group can easily form bond with carbon atom.
