Answer: The products of pyruvate metabolism are lactate, ethanol and acetyl CoA

Explanation:

Lactate: Lactate is produced by anaerobic fermentation that takes place in the skeletal muscles in humans.

Ethanol: Ethanol is produced through fermentation process yeast and bacteria.

Acetyl CoA: Aerobic Oxidation of pyruvate give rise to acetyl CoA is which the starting molecule in the citric acid cycle.

Answer:

Pyruvate under aerobic condition is converted to acetyl CoA by pyruvate dehydrogenase which enters the TCA cycle for complete oxidation or used for fatty acids synthesis.

Under anaerobic condition pyruvate can be converted to lactate by lactate dehydrogenase, It can also be converted into the amino acid alanine by the enzyme alanine transaminase .

Pyruvate may be channeled back to glucose through gluconeogenesis by converting pyruvate to oxaloacetate which is also a precursor for malete and aspartate shuttle.

<span>siRNA guides the RISC that cleaves the target mRNA. siRNA binds to its target mRNA due to its complementarity.</span> <span>Small interfering RNA (siRNA) has a function in RNA interference, which means it causes gene silencing through repression of transcription. siRNA together with some proteins (like Argonaute) form the RISC. When siRNA recognize the target mRNA it causes degradation of mRNA and thus silencing the gene that encodes that mRNA.</span>

Influenza is capable of genetic reassortment in which genetic components from two influenza strains reassort between themselves.

tester [92]

Answer:

The correct answer is - option B. ducks and swine.

Explanation:

Influenza virus is capable of the genetic reassortment. This reassortment involves the reassortment of genetic parts in between two influenza strain. This takes place due to the ability of influenza virus to alter or modify the structure of Hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase.

Some other characters also helps them to develop different strains for different host such as mutation, antigenic drift and many other conditions. Influenza virus subtype A are belongs to the avian host so they affect the birds such as duck, swan, gesse. Other than avian variants there is another strain that affect pigs known as swan variants. These strains are virulent if reassorted with human strains.

Thus, the correct answer is - option B.
