Answer:

The correct answer is C. It utilizes energy

Explanation:

The properties of a living organism is that living organism can grow, reproduce, respire, homeostasis, respond, adapt and perform metabolic activities. Living organisms can be microscopic or macroscopic. DNA can be present in the organism who died so the presence of DNA does not determine that the organism is living.

So one of the properties of a living organism is that it perform metabolic activities to utilize energy for growth and development. Therefore if the microscopic structure utilizes energy than it will considered to be a living organism.

If phosphofructokinase experienced a mutation that interfered with substrate binding, then what other enzyme is going to be most
frozen [14]

Answer: Aldolase

Explanation:

In the metabolism of glucose( glycolysis) phosphofructokinase is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversation of fructose-6-phosphate into fructose-1,6-bisphosphate. This in turn is converted to pyruvate after various steps of enzymatic activity in the glycolytic pathway.

If phosphofructokinase experienced a mutation that interfered with substrate binding, the enzyme that is going to be most immediately impacted in terms of accessing substrate is the ALDOLASE.

Aldolase enzymes cleave fructose-1,6-bisphosphate to triose phosphates( glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate and dihydroxy-acetone phosphate) facilitating an increase in anaerobic production of ATP in muscle.

Therefore, the substrate for binding of aldolase, which is fructose-1,6-bisphosphate is lacking due to mutation of phosphofructokinase enzyme.
