True or False: The first step in glycogen synthesis is the phosphorylation of glucose.

Biology
1 answer:
r-ruslan [8.4K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The correct answer is True

Explanation:

<u>The first step in glycogen synthesis (glycogenesis) is the phosphorylation of glucose to form glucose-6-phosphate</u>, which is catalyzed by hexokinase. [This step is also the first step in the glycolytic pathway]. Glucose-6-phosphate is then isomerized to glucose-1-phosphate by the action of phosphoglucomutase. This glucose-i-phosphate is then converted to glycogen by glycogen synthase.

garri49 [273]

Answer:

myofibril bulbous end of axon and skeletal muscles fibres.

Explanation:o

It represents the  chemical synapse  of the axon bulbous ends  of the motor neuron ( motor end plate) and the skeletal Muscle fibres.

The influx of calcium ions into the bulbous ends leads to the fusion  and empty of the vesicles containing neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft.

The Neurotransmitters binds to the receptors on the muscles membrane to allow the transmission of action potential ( PSIP or  PSEP)across the synaptic gap  to the muscles fibers  to initiate  their  contraction or relaxation.

den301095 [7]

The right answer is A) Trisomy

Aberrant karyotypes containing an abnormal number of chromosomes are known in the human species. The best-known (and most common) chromosomal abnormality is trisomy 21, which is responsible for Down syndrome (mongolism). There are others such as Turner syndrome (woman with a single X chromosome) or Klinefelter syndrome (man XXY).


These abnormalities originate from the non-disjunction of the chromosomes of a pair of homologues during metaphase I of meiosis. At the end of division I, a daughter cell contains the two chromosomes of the pair considered and the other cell does not contain a chromosome of this pair. A similar result can be obtained during a bad distribution of chromatids during anaphase II.


After fertilization from a gamete of this type, a trisomy or a monosomy is obtained.
