Answer
The three metabolic pathways that make up aerobic respiration are really all parts of one larger pathway because the products of early pathways (like NADH) become <u>utilize</u> in the last one.
Explanation
Aerobic respiration is that type of respiration in which glucose molecule is broken down into CO2 and H2O in the presence of oxygen and 36 or 38 ATP molecules are produced.
Aerobic respiration complete in four main steps:
1. Glycolysis
In this step glucose is broken down into 2 molecules of pyruvate acid along with the production of 2 ATP molecules and 2NADH.
2. Oxidation of pyruvate
In this step pyruvate are oxidized in the presence of co-enzyme A to become Acetyl Co-enzyme A. Again 2NADH are formed in this step.
3. Kreb Cycle
It occus in mitochondria. Here acetyle coenzyme A enter Carbon fixation, reduction and regeneration phase. In this cycle 6 NADH, 2FADH2 and 2ATP are formed.
4. Electron transport chain
All NADH that are produced in above steps get oxidize and help in the production of ATP along with the release of electron and proton that help in the formation of water.
Answer:
<u>3) Uncontrolled cell division occurred as a result of gene mutations</u>
<u />
Explanation:
Spontaneous modifications within the genome may occur during the process of cell division. When copies of the DNA inside the cell are made, these mutations cause errors; and can include small single nucleotide polymorphisms, and large scale additions or deletions across multiple genes.
Some, like somatic mutations, exist only inside vegetative (body) cells, that cannot be passed onto offspring. This is caused by several factors like
- UV radiation,
- chemical mutagens,
- infective agents
UV radiation damages strands of DNA, by causing dimers to form; here, consecutive nucleotide bases covalently bond instead of those on the complementary strand. This conformational change causes errors in DNA proofreading and repair mechanisms where bases are not well-incorporated into the strand- tumors (clumps of uncontrolled cell growth) may form, resulting in melanoma, a type of skin cancer.
The primary driving force that stabilizes lipid bilayers is the formation of hydrophobic bonds between fatty acid chains in phospholipids and protein.
The cell membrane is made up of phospolipid bilayer with proteins embedded in between
Lipid bilayer is the structure present in the biological membrane. It consist of two layers of lipids with hydrophilic end facing each other and hydrophobic end facing the outer side.
the inner layer has both the hydrophobic end of the lipid molecules facing each other and bonded by hydrophobic bond van der waals forces.
The outer molecules are bonded with the protein molecules through hydrophilic bonds called hydrogen bonds.

Answer:
1) The genetic changes can lead to a reduction in the capacity of the mice to move glycogen at its branches points and lowers blood glucose levels between meals.
2) Genetic changed can lead to a decrease in the capacity to lower blood glucose due to the knock out of the hexokinase gene leading to elevated levels in the bloodstream.
(c) A knockout of FBPase2 will result in elevated levels of fructose-2,6-bisphosphate in
liver favoring the glycolytic pathway and inhibiting gluconeogenesis by the decrease of fructose 1,6-
bisphosphatase-1 activity
(d) An active FBPase-2 will now favor gluconeogenesis and this inhibits glycolysis. I.e. a decrease in PFK-1 activity while increasing FBPase-1 activity simultaneously.
