Answer:

The correct answer is d FBP is a potent allosteric activator of phosphofructokinase and inhibitor of fructose bisphosphatase

Explanation:

Fructose-2,6 bisphosphate is formed from fructose-6-phosphate by the catalytic activity of phosphofructokinase 2 .The so formed fructose-2,6- bisphosphate activates the enzyme phosphofructokinase 1 resulting in conversion of fructose-2,6-bisphosphate to fructose -1,-bisphosphate.This is an important example of feed forward activation.

   On the other hand FBP act as an inhibitor of fructose bisphosphatase thus slowing down the rate of gluconeogenesis.

Why is special creation not considered a scientific explanation for the diversity of life on earth?
Rufina [12.5K]
Special Creation is a term that can be interpreted a number of ways, just as evolution can. One interpretation called Young Earth Creationism, YEC, erroneously discounts much of the physics, chemistry, biology and wealth of data that science has observed. Most pronounced is the proposition that the universe is only ~<10 k years old. Because of this, it is not considered scientific. When applied to the diversity of life, YEC's believe all life is the result of special creation events made in less than one week of time, countering the long times for organism development and progression that science has observed. YECs account for the origin of all life through special creation, while science presently has no explanation naturalistically for the origin of life. YECs do not recognize evolution, science presently considers evolution through natural selection, as the source of all living entities. While evolution is fatally flawed in explaining how life has progressed, YECs compress all life development, despite the long period of time indicated scientifically.

An alternate special creation model accepts the long era of Earth formation and life's creation and progression, attributes the origin of life to God's intelligent designed cellular functionality, considers all of the fossil evidence showing stages of radiation events, stasis and extinction as God bioformed the Earth using common design for the eventual consciously intelligent humans.

You are conducting a photosynthesis experiment to determine how much oxygen is produced over a 24-hour period of time. You are m
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

Measure only daytime.

Explanation:

It is useless to measure the oxygen production every hour for 24 hours because oxygen is produced during day time due to the presence of photosynthesis process. Oxygen is produced in large amount during photosynthesis, some oxygen is used in respiration while the remaining diffuse out from plant body through stomata. After vanishing sunlight, the photosynthesis process stop and no production of oxygen occur. So only measure oxygen production at daytime as compared to every hour for 24 hours.
