Continued strenuous activity can cause lactate to accumulate in muscles. After the activity stops, the lactate is converted into

pyruvate and used as an energy source. Explain how pyruvate can be used to produce ATP.

The Cori cycle (also known as the lactic acid cycle), named after its discoverers, Carl Ferdinand Cori and Gerty Cori,[1] refers to the metabolic pathway in which lactate produced by anaerobic glycolysis in the muscles moves to the liver and is converted to glucose, which then returns to the muscles and is cyclically metabolized back to lactate.[2]

What happens to energy that is released from food, but not captured and store into<br> ATP?
nignag [31]

Answer:

In conditions of low or no oxygen the process of anaerobic respiration occurs. The 'an' in 'anaerobic' means without. During anaerobic respiration, the oxidation of glucose is incomplete - not all of the energy can be released from the glucose molecule as it is only partially broken down.

Imagine that you've discovered a regulatory sequence thousands of base pairs away from the promoter and that when this sequence
Tresset [83]

Answer:

An Enhancer

Explanation:

Enhancers are the regulatory sequences and are generally located 80-160 base pairs upstream of the transcription start site. Enhancers have bidirectional elements that are involved in the initiation of transcription. Enhancers serve as the binding sites for activators to increase the concentration of activators in the vicinity of the promoter and thereby increase the rate of transcription of the gene.

According to the given information, the loss of a regulatory sequence led to a reduced level of transcription of the gene. This means that the regulatory sequence was involved in the upregulation of transcription. The presence of the sequence far away from the promoter makes it an enhancer.
