Answer:

a. glycolysis—preparatory reaction--cirtric acid cycle--electron transport system

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the first stage of cellular respiration that occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. During glycolysis one 6 carbon glucose is converted into two molecules of 3 carbon pyruvic acid or pyruvate.
In the preparatory reaction, the pyruvate converted into a two-carbon molecule called acetyl CoA. In this reaction, a carbon dioxide molecule is released and a molecule of NADH is released.
The citric acid cycle begins with the reaction of the acetyl CoA with a four-carbon molecule in the mitochondrisl matrix. It goes through a cycle of reactions regenerating the four-carbon starting molecule. ATP, NADH and FADH₂ are produced.
The electron transport system is the terminal step of aerobic respiration that operates on the inner membrane of the mitochondria. Reduced coenzymes NADH and FADH₂ move along electron transport system release high-energy electrons and produce ATP.

Which of the following is an example of post-transcriptional control of gene expression?a. gene amplification contributing to ca

MAVERICK [17]

The correct answer is: b. the removal of introns and alternative splicing of exons

Post-transcriptional regulation includes processes of regulation between transcription and translation such as RNA splicing, capping, addition of poly-A tail, RNA editing.

RNA splicing represents the process of RNA processing in which newly synthesized pre-mRNA transcript is converted into a mature mRNA. This process occurs only in eukaryotic organism and includes the removal of introns and joining together the exons. RNA splicing might occur during or immediately after transcription and it is performed by spliceosome (complex of small nuclear ribonucleo proteins).

Alternative splicing is a regulated process in which a single gene can code for multiple proteins because particular exons of a gene may be included within or excluded from the final mRNA.

If a phospholipid is located in the outer layer of the bilayer in a vesicle, where will it end up when the vesicle fuses with th

Leviafan [203]

If a phospholipid is located in the outer layer of the bilayer in a vesicle, it will end up in the cytosolic face of the bilayer when the vesicle fuses with the plasma membrane.

The lipids on the exterior of a vesicle will end up in the phospholipid layer on the interior (cytosolic face) of the plasma membrane when it fuses with the membrane. The extracellular fluid in the plasma membrane will be in contact with the lipids on the interior of the vesicle membrane.

What is a phospholipid?

Phospholipids are a subclass of lipids that have two hydrophobic "tails" made of fatty acids connected by an alcohol residue. Their hydrophilic "head" contains a phosphate group (usually a glycerol molecule).

Answer:

The correct answer is option (D) there was a time in Pennsylvania history when dinosaur existed.

Explanation: A paleontologist discovers a rock slab on which the footprints of a Pennsylvania dinosaur are well preserved. This means that there was a time in Pennsylvania history when dinosaur existed in this area. Here fossil is a fragment of rock on which the footprints of dinosaur is present.
