Free palmitate is activated to its coenzyme A derivative (palmitoyl-CoA) in the cytosol before it can be oxidized in the mitocho

ndrion. If palmitate and [14C]coenzyme A are added to a liver homogenate, palmitoyl-CoA isolated from the cytosolic fraction is radioactive, but the palmitoyl-CoA isolated from the mitochondrial fraction is not. Why is this?

Answer:

Explanation:

The fatty acyl group condensed with CoA in the cytosol is first transferred to carnitine, releasing CoA and then transported to the mitochondrion, where it is condensed with CoA again. CoA cytosolic and mitochondrial pools are therefore kept separate and no radioactive CoA enters the mitochondrion from the cytosolic pool.

Cell walls are impermeable to transport of most materials required for bacterial nutrition.
mezya [45]

The given statement is False.

The bacterial cells walls are composed of peptidoglycan, also known as murein. It comprises polysaccharide chains cross-linked by unusual peptides, involving D-amino acids. The bacterial cell walls are distinct from cell walls of fungi and plants that are made up of chitin and cellulose, respectively.

The cell walls in bacteria allow small molecules to pass through them freely, however, do not permit large molecules to pass through them, in this manner, it function as a coarse filter.

The main function of the cells wall is to sustain the shape of the cell and inhibit the cell from bursting due to osmotic pressure. The cell wall allows the components to pass, which are essential for bacterial nutrition.

How does matter flow between trophic levels and among ecosystems?
Brut [27]
