Pretty Please explain why the correct answer for the question: "A mutation in yeast makes it unable to convert pyruvate to ethan
ol. how will this mutation affect these yeast cells?" is "A) the mutant yeast will be unable to grow anaerobically" and not the others? A) the mutant yeast will be unable to grow anaerobically.
B) the mutant yeast will grow anaerobically only when given glucose.
C) the mutant yeast will be unable to metabolize glucose.
D) the mutant yeast will die because they cannot regenerate nad+ from nad.
I would really appreciate it if someone helped me with this problem. I need to do corrections for this problem but I don't understand it.
I am assuming that is has something to do with maybe to convert pyruvate to ethanol there needs to be no oxygen. therefore it will not be able to grow without oxygen (anaerobically). That's the best i could think of hope it helps, sorry if it doesn't.
The chart is a basic molecular design of multicellular organisms.
Atoms, molecules, cells, tissues, organs, organ systems are the building blocks of the human body which combine together on the basis of similar function or structure to achieve various body functions.
Atoms form chemical bonds with other atoms and form molecules.
Molecules combine together to form cells.
Cells are the basic functional and structural units of life.
Cells that perform similar functions combine together to form tissues.
Two or more kinds of tissues that perform similar functions combine to form organs.
Organs, in turn, form organ systems such as the respiratory or cardiovascular systems etc.
