Answer:

When an atom gains or loses an electron, it attains a net charge and becomes an ion. When electrons are lost, the resulting ion is called cation and when electrons are gained, the resulting ion is called an anion.

Hence, option A is correct answer.

<h3>What is Pyruvate Dehydrogenase? </h3>

The reaction between pyruvate and a lipoamide, which results in acetylated dihydrolipoamide and carbon dioxide, is catalysed by the enzyme pyruvate dehydrogenase. Thiamine pyrophosphate is a coenzyme needed for the conversion.

The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex changes the chemical pyruvate, which is created when carbohydrates are broken down, into the molecule acetyl-CoA. The chain of chemical events that provide energy for cells must start with this conversion.

<h3>What is glycolysis? </h3>

The metabolic process that changes glucose into pyruvate is known as glycolysis. The high energy molecules adenosine triphosphate and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide are created using the free energy released during this process. A series of ten enzyme-catalyzed processes make up glycolysis.

Not producing adenosine 5′-triphosphate is not the primary goal of glycolysis; rather, it is to produce pyruvate for the trichloroacetic acid (TCA) cycle. 

By raising the proportion of NADH, a reduced form of NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide), to NAD+, the glycolytic synthesis of pyruvate lowers the cytosol.

What is the definition of Photosynthesis
kupik [55]

Answer:

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants and other things make food. It is a chemical process that uses sunlight to turn carbon dioxide into sugars that the cell can use as energy. As well as plants, many kinds of algae, protists and bacteria use it to get food.

The two MOST efficient ways for the body to eliminate excess heat are:_______
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Sweating and Dilation of skin blood vessels.

Explanation:

Homeostasis may be defined as the phenomena by which living organisms maintain their internal body environment. Exothermic animals spends energy for the maintenance of homeostasis.

The humans maintain their internal body temperature irrespective of their external environment.  In case of excess temperature in summer, humans maintain their internal temperature by perspiration known as sweating and dilation of the blood vessels.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

swat32

Answer:

The potential antibiotic is a competitive inhibitor of the glucose converting enzyme and could be an effective solution for bacterial infections.

Explanation:

Enzyme kinetics mainly deals with the study of the rate of reaction of the enzyme. Different factors that can affects the enzyme rate are also studied in enzyme kinetics.

The competitive inhibitors of the enzyme do not show any effect on the Vmax value of the enzyme and binds to the enzyme only. These inhibitors do not have ability to binds with enzyme substrate complex. The increase in the enzyme and substrate concentration can remove the inhibitor affect.

Thus, the correct answer is option (b).
