Phosphofructokinase catalyzes the phosphorylation of fructose 6‑phosphate to fructose 1,6‑bisphosphate in glycolysis. Fructose 1

,6‑bisphosphatase catalyzes the hydrolysis of fructose 1,6‑bisphosphate to fructose 6‑phosphate in gluconeogenesis. How does fructose 2,6‑bisphosphate (F26BP) affect the activity of the enzymes phosphofructokinase‑1 (PFK) and fructose 1,6‑bisphosphatase (FBPase)?

Answer:

Fructose 2,6‑bisphosphate (F26BP) activates phosphofructokinase‑1 (PFK -1) and inhibits fructose 1,6‑bisphosphatase (FBPase)

Explanation:

Fructose 2,6‑bisphosphate (F26BP) is a metabolite that is produced with an increase in glucose, hence increasing the availability of fructose-6-phosphate. With, the increased concentration of F26BP, it increases the affinity of PFK- 1 to fructose-6-phosphate, thereby activating glycolysis which enhances the catabolism of glucose. In contrast, F26BP inhibits the activity of  fructose 1,6‑bisphosphatase (FBPase), hence inhibiting gluconeogenesis. Gluconeogenesis (formation of glucose) will not be need since there is the presence of glucose in the system.

In summary, fructose 2,6‑bisphosphate (F26BP) reciprocally controls the enzymatic activity of  phosphofructokinase‑1 (PFK -1) and fructose 1,6‑bisphosphatase (FBPase); it inhibits gluconeogenesis by inhibiting the enzyme, FBPase and activates glycolysis by activating the enzyme PFk -1

In-text citations are for any information you got from another source. if you directly quote it, you need an in-text citation; if you summarize it, you need one; if you paraphrase it, you need one.

APA format in-text citations require three things if available: the author's name, the year, and the page number. for parenthetical citations, it's formatted like so: (Smith, 2002, pp. 91)

however, signal phrases change things. signal phrases are your lead-ins to quotes, like, "According to John Smith" or "An article by Jane Doe" -- HOWEVER, in APA format, you're required to put the year in the signal phrase if you mention the author. "According to John Smith" becomes "According to John Smith (2002)," and you continue your sentence like normal.

if no author is available, cite it by the title of the web article. for example: ("Camping," 2001). if no page number is available, as is usually the case with web sources, leave it out.

remember that if you say the article/page number/author's name IN your signal phrase, the same information doesn't need to be repeated in your in-text citation. you only need to give the information once, because they'll be able to find it on your reference page:

According to John Smith (2002), mosquitoes prefer humid weather (pp. 9).
Mosquitoes prefer humid weather (Smith, 2002, pp.9).
According to page 9 of "The Great Outdoors" by John Smith (2002), mosquitoes prefer humid weather.

note that for the last one, no "end of the sentence" in-text citation is needed, because you gave all three pieces of info within the sentence.

an easy way to remember the difference between MLA and APA is that APA emphasizes the date of your source more. it wants the year as soon as you reference your author. this is because in science fields, discoveries are often made then later revised, so they want to know what year you got your information from. outdated information could be considered like invalid or whatever so dates matter A Lot for science!!

MLA format is actually easier. all you have to do for the in-text citations is the author's last name and page number, or the article title. no dates are needed in-text.

as an example: (Smith 9)

no "pp." is needed as they require in APA format. just the name, then a number for the page. that's it. if you say the author's name in your signal phrase, you only need to give the page number:

According to John Smith in his book "The Great Outdoors," mosquitoes prefer humid weather (9).
According to "The Great Outdoors," mosquitoes prefer humid weather (Smith 9).
According to page 9 of "The Great Outdoors," mosquitoes prefer humid weather (Smith).

this...is long. but i hope it helps! feel free to message me if you run across any special cases that give you trouble.

A person had bread and butter for his breakfast. Trace the changes in the main components of these during its passage through th
Papessa [141]

When the bread and butter is in mouth, mechanical digestion starts. The size of the food gets reduced and it mixes with saliva for easy swallowing. The salivary amylase in saliva begins the digestion of starch in the bread. This is the start of chemical digestion. When the undigested bread and butter reached the stomach, lower esophageal sphincter relaxes and allow the chewed food to enter. The gastric secretions containing HCl, acts on the undigested food to produce chime. HCl kill the microorganism on the food and also denatures the protein and later attacked by digestive enzyme pepsin. Pepsin breakdown protein in the bread, butter . Later on gastric lipase begins to digest fat present in butter. Digestion of the starch in bread does not occur in the stomach because the salivary amylase that began chemical digestion in mouth became inactive in the presence of HCl. Further the chime enters the small intestine where bile secreted by the gall bladder emulsifies the fat and break into small globule which helps in fat absorption.

Explanation:

In urbanizing stage, death rate quickly declined because of the improvements in agricultural aspect which goes down to food supplies, health care delivery, medicine improvements, and even  the investments in sanitation and infrastructure which contributes to the increasing life expectancy of the people and lesser diseases which cause deaths.  Though birth rates remain almost the same, but young population continues to grow because of the low death rate.

Flura [38]

The mosquito would become more prone to injury due to a weakening of its Exoskeleton.

Exoskeleton, a hard or flexible covering that supports and shields an animal's soft tissues. The phrase refers to the chitinous integument of arthropods, such as insects, spiders, and crustaceans, and includes the calcareous housings of sessile invertebrates like clams. The exterior waxy, water-resistant covering of the arthropod exoskeleton, which is made from the epidermis, is covered by chitinous, and flexible layers. This coating features tiny breathing openings in terrestrial species (spiracles). The exoskeleton has made it possible for arthropods, particularly insects, to overrun the majority of terrestrial ecosystems by avoiding dehydration. Exoskeletons of animals like the lobster have flexible joints that allow for remarkable mobility.
