nikklg [1K]

<u>ANSWER:</u>

The correct order is-  Zygote, Blastula, Gastrula, Fetus.

  • The zygote undergoes cell division to form blastula which is a "ball of cells".
  • Gastrula leads to the rearrangement of cells of the blastula into three layers that differentiate into different systems of organ.
  • The last stage is the fetus which then develops into a baby.

27. What is the major reactant needed for the Citric Acid Cycle (aka Krebs Cycle)?
sp2606 [1]

Answer: b. Acetyl Co-A

Explanation:

Acetyl CoA produced through pyruvate, amino acids, and fatty acids are oxidized in the Krebs cycle in CO2, obtaining as products NADH, FADH2 and GTP (ATP). Parallel to this oxidation, the Krebs cycle produces compounds used as precursors for biosynthesis. As it is a cycle, an oxaloacetate molecule could, in principle, oxidize an amount indefinite of acetyl CoA. Acetyl-CoA is formed from the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate, sequentially performed by pyruvate dehydrogenase -PDH (complex multi enzymatic of 3 enzymes), in the mitochondrial matrix.

Free nucleotides must be available in a cells nucleus to produce mrna strands. where do these free nucleotides come from
iren [92.7K]
<span>All four nucleotides (adenine, guanine, thymine, cytosine) are synthesized in the liver. The nucleotides can be synthesized de novo or recycled through salvage pathways. The synthesis occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell, not within a specific organelle. The components which are used for the nucleotide synthesis are derived from biosynthetic precursors of carbohydrate and amino acid metabolism, and from ammonia and CO2.</span>
