Here's a basic answer,
<span>Normal temperatures of Tokyo go up more than those of the surrounding area. An urban heat island (UHI) is a city or metropolitan area that is significantly warmer than its surrounding rural areas due to human activities. ... The main cause of the urban heat island effect is from the modification of land surfaces.
I didn't answer this, but Google did.

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

In Prophase of Mitosis cell division, the chromatin that is present in the nucleus starts condensation.

In Metaphase of mitosis, the chromosomes arrange itself at the equator or center of the cell.

In Anaphase, the daughter chromatids separate from each other and moves towards the poles. In Telophase of mitosis, the parent cell is divided into two daughter cells.

Scientists can use mutants to study metabolic pathways. These organisms have a mutation in a gene encoding a metabolic pathway e
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Pyruvate kinase

Explanation:

Yeasts convert glycerol and sugars into glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (G3P) through independent pathways. Then, G3P forms pyruvate and, in some circumstances, pyruvate is converted in ethanol, which can be used as energy sources. If the mutation affects any reaction before G3P formation, it will only affect yeast growing either on sugar or pyruvate but not both.

Pyruvate kinase is the only enzyme on the list acting after G3P is formed and before pyruvate is formed. All other options are enzymes acting only in the formation of G3P from sugars. Meaning that only pyruvate kinase mutants will lack the ability to grow on both sugars and glycerol.

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The fate of glucose-6-phosphate,glycolytic intermediates and pentose phosphate pathways are described below

Explanation:

Fate of Glucose -6-phosphate

Glucose-6-phosphate undergo dephosphorylation to form glucose when there is an increase demand of glucose in the body.

Glucose-6-phosphate enters into pentose phosphate pathway to synthesize ribose-5-phosphate which is used during denovo pathway of purine nucleotide biosynthesis.

Fate of glycolytic intermediates

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate is an important intermediate of glycolysis.The glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate act as a precursor during lipogenesis that deals with the biosynthesis of triacylglycerol.

Fate of pentose phosphate pathway intermediates

Ribose-5-phosphate and NADPH are the important intermediates of pentone phosphate pathway.

 Ribose-5-phosphate act as a substrate molecule during the denovo biosynthesis pathway of purine nucleotides.

NADPH act as a reducing agent during fatty acid biosynthesis process.
