Answer: B. In hypoxic tissues, in contrast to normoxic tissues, ATP is additionally consumed to transform lactate to pyruvate
Explanation:
In hypoxic tissues such as new cancerous cells, the vascular system is still underdeveloped, thus oxygen supply is reduced. To meet energy need, additional glucose is needed to convert lactate (result of anaerobic glycolysis) to pyruvate which can then go into the TCA cycle to yield energy. This phenomenon is very common in muscle tissues during exercise.
Answer:
The correct answer will be Option-C.
Explanation:
The pancreas is an organ which plays an important role in the digestion of the food. Pancreatic juice is secreted by the pancreas which contains digestive enzymes as well as the sodium bicarbonate (base).
The sodium bicarbonate is required for the digestion of the food as after the acidic digestion of the food in the stomach, the food chyme enters small intestine. The inner lumpen is not structured to handle the acidic chyme so sodium bicarbonate neutralizes the acid chyme that entered the lumen of the small intestine.
Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.
_______________ reactions transfer energy to the surroundings, usually as heat.
C. Exothermic
Answer:
Physical digestion prepares the food for chemical digestion.
