Glycolysis and the citric acid cycle comprise two different sets of oxidation reactions. thereaction sequence for glycolysis is

linear, whereas the reaction sequence for the citirc acid cycle forms a circle. how does this difference in the arrangement of reactions influence the rate of these processes when an excess amount of a single intermediate is added?

I think that when an excess amount of one intermediate is added to the citric acid cycle, it will cause an increase in all the intermediates, this is because it will be continuously cycled through the cycle. On the other hand, if one intermediate is added to the process of glycolysis, there will be no increase in all the intermediates as the process ends once the two pyruvates molecules are formed. The intermediate will thus, build up and will not be cycled to form more product.

What is the role of carbon storage in organisms?? Plz answer fast in paragraph form if possible
belka [17]
Animals and plants need to get rid of carbon dioxide gas through a process called respiration. Carbon moves from fossil fuels to the atmosphere when fuels are burned. When humans burn fossil fuels to power factories, power plants, cars and trucks, most of the carbon quickly enters the atmosphere as carbon dioxide gas.

If u have no white blood cells left, what does this mean?
olga2289 [7]
White blood cells fight infections from bacteria, viruses, fungi. and other pathogens (organisms that cause infection). One important type of white blood cell is the neutrophil. These cells are made in bone marrow and travel in the blood throughout the body. They sense infections, gather at sites of infection, and destroy the pathogens.

When the body has too few neutrophils, the condition is called neutropenia. This makes it harder for the body to fight off pathogens. As a result the person is more likely to get sick from infections. In general, an adult who has fewer than 1,000 neutrophils in a microliter of blood has neutropenia.

If the neutrophil count is very low, (fewer than 500 neutrophils in a microliter of blood), it is called severe neutropenia. When the neutrophil count gets this low, even the bacteria normally living in a person's mouth, skin, and gut can cause serious infections.
