The enzyme phosphoglucomutase interconverts glucose-1-phosphate and glucose-6-phosphate. why is this enzyme likely to include a
sukhopar [10]

Hydroxyl group of serin act as a side chain enzyme. Glucose 1- phosphate is converted to glucose 6- phosphate by the enzyme phosphoglucomutase.

Those tissues also house the enzyme glucose 6- phosphatase, which  converted to glucose 6- phosphate into free glucose that is secreted into the blood ,  thereby restoring blood glucose levels to normal. It is intracelluar form of blood glucose.

Phosphorylation traps the glucose by placing a negative charge on the molecule , preventing its diffusion back across the cell membrane into the blood. Hexokinase enzyme acts on glucose and converts to glucose 6-phosphate.

Monosaccharides can be classified based on the number of carbons they contain and the type of group attached to the molecule. Se

<h2>Monosaccharides</h2>

Explanation:

Monosaccharides are the simplest form of sugars found in innumerable common food items such as honey, cane sugar, fruits

Monosaccharides are divided into two groups depending on the presence of functional groups,if aldehyde group is present then it is known aldoses and if ketone group is present then it is known as ketoses

On the basis of carbon atoms they can be classified as: triose(3),tetrose(4),pentose(5),hexose(6) and so on

a. erythrose : tetrose ketose-It is not correctly paired because erythrose is a tetrose monosaccharide which has one aldehyde group hence is an aldose

b. dihydroxyacetone : triose ketose-It is correctly paired;it is an aldose-ketose pair

c. erythrulose : tetrose aldose-It is not correctly paired because erythrulose is a tetrose monosaccharide having ketone as functional group hence is a ketose

d. fructose : hexose ketose-it is correctly paired;It is an anomer because in D-fructose carbonyl group is at C-2 hence C-2 is the anomeric carbon

e. ribose : hexose aldose-it is not correctly paired because ribose is an aldo pentose not hexose;ribose is an aldo-ketose pair

f. glyceraldehyde : triose aldose-it is correctly paired;an aldo group

If an individual is homozygous for a trait, what percentage of his/her gametes will carry that allele?
Kazeer [188]
100% will have that allele. Homozygous means the alleles are the same for every gamete, for example looking at Mendel's pea plants, if the allele for the trait of growing tall is T and the allele for growing short is t, a homozygous tall pea plant would have the genotype TT, meaning all of its alleles are tall
