Answer:
A cell is basically made of biological molecules (proteins, lipids, carbohydrates and nucleic acids). These biomolecules are all made from Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Proteins and nucleic acids have Nitrogen.
Explanation:
Answer:
It would become the same as another of starch component similar glycogen. Amylose as you mentioned have 1-4 bonds but glycogen have 1-6 bonds. Glycogen is more branched and this makes it less soluble in water. also it is used as a storage medium only and it is not easily digested. Just the level of complexity would have increased. solubility would have lessened
Answer:
Explanation:
Normally, under anaerobic condition in yeast, pyruvate produced from glycolysis leads to the production of ethanol as shown below.
pyruvate ⇒ acetaldehyde + NADH ⇒ ethanol + NAD
The pyruvate is converted to acetaldehyde by the enzyme, pyruvate decarboxylase. It should be NOTED that carbon dioxide is released in this step. The acetaldehyde produced in the "first step" is then converted to ethanol by the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase. It must be noted from the above that the steps are irreversible.
If a mutated strain of yeast is unique because it does not produce alcohol and lactic acid (which is referred to as toxic acid in the question); thus having a high level of pyruvate because of the presence of a novel enzyme. <u>The function of this novel enzyme will most likely be the conversion of acetaldehyde in the presence of carbondioxide back to pyruvate; thus making that step reversible</u>. This could be a possible explanation for the high level of pyruvate present in the yeast.
Answer: Possession of Valves
Explanation: Veins possess valves which ensures that blood flows in only one direction. Valves helps blood to flow back to the heart against gravitational force.
Arteries don't have valves because the pressure originating from the heart is capable of causing the blood to flow in one direction.
