Answer:

B. Mitochondria

Explanation:

  • Mitochondria are known as the power house of the cell. They are the sites of cellular respiration that breaks down glucose into energy molecules such as ATP and energy storage molecules such as NADH and FADH2.
  • In this scenario, since the cell's energy levels fall and metabolism ceases, the organelle most likely affected is the mitochondria.
  • If mitochondria are affected, glucose will not be metabolized to ATP and the cell will not have sufficient energy for cellular functions.

Which of the following is an example of how the respiratory system interacts with the circulatory system to excrete waste?
katovenus [111]
We do not use carbon dioxide to fuel our blood cells. It is a waste.

Arteries move blood from the heart to the rest of the body.

Veins carry the blood to the heart to be oxidized. 

"D" is not correct. 

"B" is not correct.

We know that veins carry blood to the heart, lungs exhale carbon dioxide. 

"A" is the correct answer.

I hope this helps!

When glucose is present, enzyme IIAglc is __________ and LacY is __________. a. phosphorylated; inhibited b. not phosphorylated;
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Option B, not phosphorylated; inhibited

Explanation:

Glucose 6 acts as a catobolite repressant . A catobolite repressant which is usually a carbon compound inhibits the operon transcription. In the presence of glucose -6, unphosphorylated enzyme IIAGlc  inhibits the transportation system and hence prevents the utilization of lactose. Glucose‐6‐phosphate and other non‐PTS carbon causes inducer exclusion thereby leading to dephosphorylation of enzyme IIAGl without getting transported.

Hence, option B is correct
