Imagine a genomic researcher who is analyzing the genome of different types of cats. She finds that a particular sequence in the

North American Bobcat genome is exactly homologous to a sequence found in the common house cat, while all other sequences in those two genomes differ at many nucleotides. (The most recent common ancestor between bobcats and house cats is estimated to be about 6.8 million years, plenty of time for mutation to generate DNA sequence variation.)
Which of the following could explain the identical sequence in these otherwise differing genomes?

01. The sequence encodes a ribosomal protein that is critical for life and can not be easily mutated while retaining function.

02. The sequence is contained in a virus that has infected germline cells in both species.

03. The sequence is from an intron of a gene that encodes a muscle protein.

Provide a rationale for why each of the three statements above are correct or incorrect.

PFK can be allosterically inhibited by ATP at high concentrations. Which of the following is the benefit of regulating glycolysi
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

The principle benefit of regulating glycolysis by the concentration of ATP is to signals the cell to stop glycolysis as sufficient amount of ATP is already present in the biological system.

Explanation:

Phosphofructokinase 1 is allosterically inhibited by ATP.Glycolysis is a catabolic as well as exergonic process which deals with the oxidation of glucose to form pyruvate along with ATP molecules.

            When ATP is present at high concentration within our body at that time there is no need to synthesize additional ATP because ATP is already present in sufficient amount.

       To maintain its own homeostasis ATP allosterically inhibit the catalytic activity of phosphofructokinase. As a result glycolysis is inhibited and the glucose molecule can be utilized in other metabolic pathways.
