Adrenaline stimulates glycogen breakdown in skeletal muscle cells by ultimately activating glycogen phosphorylase, the enzyme th

at breaks down glycogen. Which of the following statements below is false?
a. A constitutively active mutant form of PKA in skeletal muscle cells would lead to a decrease in the amount of unphosphorylated phosphorylase kinase.
b. A constitutively active mutant form of PKA in skeletal muscle cells would not increase the affinity of adrenaline for the adrenergic receptor.
c. A constitutively active mutant form of PKA in skeletal muscle cells would lead to an excess in the amount of glycogen available.
d. A constitutively active mutant form of PKA in skeletal muscle cells would increase the amount of phosphorylated glycogen phosphorylase.
e. A constitutively active mutant form of PKA in skeletal muscle cells would lead to an excess in the amount of glucose available.

Answer:

d) A constitutively active mutant form of PKA in skeletal muscle cells would lead to an excess in the amount of glycogen available.

Explanation:

This occurs in the process of Glycogenolysis. The process involves breaking down of glycogen to glucose  -1- phosphate and glycogen which helps in the release of glucose into the blood stream to prevent hypoglycemia(low blood sugar). The glucose-1-phosphate is later converted to glucose -6-phosphate. The latter enters the glycolytic pathway in which the reaction is catalysed by the enzyme phosphoglucomutase.

This homeostatic glucose regulation  is regulated by the protein kinase(PKA)/ cAMP pathway in the skeletal muscles, the liver and the pancreas.

Answer:

c. A constitutively active mutant form of PKA in skeletal muscle cells would lead to an excess in the amount of glycogen available.

Explanation:

This represented the process of Glycogenlysis. The breaking down of glycogen to glucose  -1- phosphate  and glycogen  to release glucose into the blood stream to prevent hypoglycemia. The glucose-1-phosphate is later converted to glucose -6-phosphate. The latter enters the glycolytic parthway. The reaction is catalysed by the enzyme phosphoglucomutase.

This homeostatic glucose regulation   is regulated by the protein kinase(PKA)/ cAMP pathway in the skeletal muscles, the liver and the pancreas. The PKA/cAMP signaling  pathway, also regulate glucose uptake,  breakdown of glycogen, insulin and glucagon synthesis.

Part E Your molecular clock model resembles another branching chart, the phylogenetic chart, which you’ve used in this unit. Rev
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

The phylogenetic graph uses several types of variables to be formed, while other models use only one type of variable.

Explanation:

To create a phylogenetic chart, matrices with data on the studied species are used. These data are composed of morphological, chemical and / or genetic information that allow a detailed investigation about the ancestry of each species, in addition to allowing the correct grouping based on this ancestry and evolution.

A phylogenetic graph is different from other molecular models due to the number of data considered by it, since other models, such as the molecular clock, for example, only consider genetic based information.
