Glycolysis is an example of a metabolic pathway that is utilized by all human body tissues. Other pathways are much more promine

nt in, or nearly absent from, certain tissues. For example, glycogenesis is prominent in liver and muscle tissues but not in brain tissue. Tissue‑specific metabolism is often due to a large difference in the amount of a key pathway enzyme between tissues.
For each statement, determine the tissue in which the pathway enzyme is most prominent.
1. Glucokinase, an isozyme of hexokinase, phosphorylates glucose in this tissue ___________.
2. Glucose-6-phosphatase is only found in this tissue, where it hydrolyzes glucose-6- phosphate and releases glucose into the blood _____.
3. Creatine kinase regenerates ATP from ADP in this high energy demand tissue_________.
4. Lipases hydrolyze triacylglycerols in this tissue, releasing fatty acids into the blood__________.
5. β- ketoacyl-CoA transferase (thiophorase) is absent from this tissue_________.

Answer:

1. Liver

2. Liver and Kidneys

3. Mitochondria

4. Lumen of the small intestines

5. Liver

Explanation:

1. Glucose is phosphorylated into glucose-6-phosphate which is the first step of both glycogen synthesis and glycolysis, this process occurs in the liver

2.   Glucose 6-phosphate is a product of a process named gluconeogenesis which occurs in the liver it serves as a substrate for glucose-6-phosphatase in the liver.

3. Creatinine kinase is an enzyme that catalyzes the phosphorylation of creatine. In regeneration process of ATP, creatine phosphate transfers a high-energy phosphate to ADP which produces ATP and creatine

4. Initially lipase digestion lipase digestion happens in the small intestine where the bile salts reduce the surface tension of the fat droplets allowing the lipases to attack the triglyceride molecules. These molecules are taken up into the epithelial cells that line the intestinal wall, where they are resynthesized into triglyceride

5. The job of the liver is to produce ketone bodies. If the liver had this enzyme, the ketone bodies it produces would be immediately broken down by the liver before they are released, thereofore, no release of ketone bodies into the bloodstream

Biotechnology is a growing field of applied biology. Many crops, such as corn, have been engineered to be resistant to herbicide
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Corn crop is resistant to herbicides because they are genetically modified through genetic engineering. There are some bacteria which are resistant to herbicides i. e. no effect of chemicals on that bacteria. So the biotechnologist take a gene from this resistant bacteria and induced it in the corn plant which becomes the part of their genetic makeup. So when we apply herbicide, the gene produces some enzymes which cancel the adverse affect of herbicide and only weeds are affected.

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

cell membrane

Explanation

It's the outer living boundary of animal cells. It's made of lipid and protein. Plasma Membrane is a mosaic of phospholipids, cholesterol, and proteins, the proteins in plasma membrane regulates the coming/going of substances into/out of the cell.

Dude why is bio so hard please help lol
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

1.Sugar bonds

2.Transport proteins

3. Digestion

4. Oxidation

explanation

Chemical energy is stored in the bonds of sugar.

The concentration gradient of a substance across the membrane represents potential energy bcz it drives diffusion.Transport proteins aids the diffusion.

Digestion converts chemical energy into kinetic energy used by cells.

When the electrons are destroyed in the glucose,Energy contained in the bonds is released in small bursts,some of it is captured in the form of ATP .'The electrons are transferred to smaller molecules known as electron carriers.The electron carriers take the electrons to a group of proteins in the inner membrane of the mitochondrion,called the electron transport chain.As electrons move through the electron transport chain they go from a higher to lower energy level and are finally passed to Oxygen to form water.The energy released is captured as a proton gradient which powers the production of ATP.

Not 100% sure whether it's the correct answer but the concept is true 100% btw I stand to be corrected
