Genetics is a branch of science that deals with the study of genes, their sequence, function, variation, and heredity.

Increasing understanding of genetics help in making new fields of health care, for example,

Gene therapy helps in treating various genetic diseases such as cystic fibrosis et cetera.
Molecular genetics help in the development of more precise methods for diagnosis such as ELISA.
Pedigree analysis and karyotypes help in early detection of possible hereditary diseases.
DNA fingerprinting helps in detecting criminal suspects, paternity test, identification of dead organism et cetera.

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

b) (i) isocitrate lyase ( isocitrate to glyoxylate)

(ii) malate synthase (glyoxylate to malate)

c) Glyoxylate cycle do no exist in animals

Explanation:

b) in the glyoxylate cycle isocitrate lyase helps in conversion of isocitrate to glyoxylate. Also, helps in conversion of glyoxylate to malate by using malate synthase.

c) Glyoxylate cycle do no exist in animals, it only exist in plants and bacteria. This is because they can produce glucose from acetyl-CoA in required amounts.They have the ability to change acetyl-CoA from fat into glucose. But in animals, this mechanism is not possible.
