Answer:
The principle benefit of regulating glycolysis by the concentration of ATP is to signals the cell to stop glycolysis as sufficient amount of ATP is already present in the biological system.
Explanation:
Phosphofructokinase 1 is allosterically inhibited by ATP.Glycolysis is a catabolic as well as exergonic process which deals with the oxidation of glucose to form pyruvate along with ATP molecules.
When ATP is present at high concentration within our body at that time there is no need to synthesize additional ATP because ATP is already present in sufficient amount.
To maintain its own homeostasis ATP allosterically inhibit the catalytic activity of phosphofructokinase. As a result glycolysis is inhibited and the glucose molecule can be utilized in other metabolic pathways.
C. testable and observable
The altered protein affected the function of the cell membrane. The cell membrane which contain a bilayer control the movement of substance in and out of the cell and organelles. Due to this it is selective permeable to ion and organic molecules.
The energy from sunlight comes in the form of photons, and this energy is used in the light dependent reactions of photosynthesis. The first function carried out by the photons in energizing electrons in the chlorophyll. The energized electron travels through the electron transport chain and subsequent steps are carried out to utilize this energy to form ATP.
