The correct answer is option B, Most of the earth is made up of only a few elements

Reason -

The material that commonly exists in earth are as follows:

a) Crust – It is made up of 46.6 % of oxygen by weight, 27.7 % of silicon by weight, 8.1% of aluminium by weight, 5% of iron by weight, 3.6% calcium by weight, 2.8% sodium by weight, 2.6% of potassium by weight etc.  

b) Mantle – it is majorly composed of silicate rocks rich in magnesium and iron

c) Core – The core is mainly made up of nickel iron alloy.  

It  can be clearly visualized that most of the Earth’s layer are composed of majorly few elements like silicon, iron, magnesium, nickel etc.

Which enzyme(s) involved in fatty acid synthesis utilize ATP? Select all that apply.
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

a. Acetyl CoA carboxylase  

Explanation:

Much of the fatty acids used by the body is supplied by the diet, excessive amounts of carbohydrates and protein obtained from the diet can be converted to fatty acids and stored as triglycerides. Fatty acid synthesis occurs mainly in the liver and mammary glands, and to a lesser extent in adipose tissue and kidney, the process incorporates acetyl CoA carbons into the forming fatty acid chain using ATP and NADPH.

The acetyl portion of acetyl CoA is transported to cytosol as citrate, produced by condensation of oxaloacetate and acetyl CoA, the first reaction of the citric acid cycle, this occurs when the concentration of mitochondrial citrate is high, observed when there is a high concentration of ATP and isocitrate dehydrogenase is inhibited.  The increase of citrate and ATP favors the synthesis of fatty acids, since this pathway needs both. Acetyl CoA should be converted to malonyl CoA. Carboxylation is catalyzed by acetyl CoA carboxylase and requires ATP, this reaction is the regulated step in fatty acid synthesis: it is inactivated by products, malonyl CoA and palmitoyl CoA, and activated by citrate, another regulatory mechanism is reversible phosphorylation of enzyme, which makes it inactive due to the presence of adrenaline / glucagon
