Answer:

The correct answer will be- Hydrolysis reaction

Explanation:

The metabolic reaction which involves the addition of water or the ions of the H₂O molecule which are the -OH and -H ions.  Since these ions will be obtained through the hydrolysis of the water molecule, therefore, the process is known as the hydrolysis reaction.

This reaction is the opposite of the dehydration reaction in which the water molecule is released. The breakdown of the polysaccharides into monosaccharides is a hydrolysis reaction.

Thus, Hydrolysis reaction is the correct answer.

The human immunodeficiency virus (hiv) that causes the disease known as aids selectively infects ________ cells.
Furkat [3]

The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) that causes the disease known as aids selectively infects helper T cells (CD4+).

This retrovirus also infects macrophages and dendritic cells. When CD4+ T cell numbers decrease below a critical level (due to the killing of this cells with different mechanisms), cell-mediated immunity is lost. As a result, the body becomes progressively more susceptible to infections, leading to the development of AIDS.

<span> HIV can be transmitted only via body fluids like blood, semen, pre-seminal fluid, rectal fluids, vaginal fluids, and breast milk, which means that people usually get or transmit HIV through sexual behaviours and use of the needle. For HIV infection, these fluids must come in direct contact with a mucous membrane or damaged tissue. Another way is to be directly injected into the bloodstream (from a needle for example).</span>

which molecules are produced in glycolysis and used in fermentation? a. acetyl-coa and nadh b. lactate, atp, and c. glucose, atp
tangare [24]

c. Glucose and ATP are produced in glycolysis and used in fermentation.

Glycolysis is the process of breaking down glucose to produce energy. It generates two pyruvate molecules, ATP, NADH, and water. The process occurs in a cell's cytoplasm and does not require oxygen. It can be found in aerobic and anaerobic organisms.

Glycolysis is a cytoplasmic pathway that converts glucose into two three-carbon compounds while producing energy. Phosphorylation traps glucose with the help of the enzyme hexokinase.

Fermentation is a metabolic process that involves the action of enzymes to produce chemical changes in organic substrates. It is narrowly defined in biochemistry as the extraction of energy from carbohydrates in the absence of oxygen. Fermentation is an ancient method of food preservation. The method is still used today to make wine, cheese, sauerkraut, yogurt, and kombucha.
