Answer:</h2>
Glucokinase or Hexokinase is a enzyme used at the first step of glycolysis.
<h2>
Explanation:</h2>
- Glucokinase is a Isoenzyme(enzymes which differs in the sequence of amino acids but catalyses the same reaction) of Hexokinase .
- Glucokinase (hexokinase D) is present only in liver and pancreas whereas hexokinase is present in all cells.
- In first step of glycolysis i.e formation of glucose-6-phosphate from glucose is completed with the help of hexokinase. In this step a ATP molecule is consumed i.e ATP is converted to ADP
Result: Glucokinase and hexokinase are used in the first step of glycolysis.

Explanation:
This question is regarding a gene in rabbit coding for fur color. Brown fur (B) in rabbits is dominant over white fur (b). However, according to the question, a white female gives birth to all white rabbits, even though the father had brown fur. This is possible because the father is heterozygous for the brown fur i.e Bb.
Hence, in a cross between a heterozygous father (Bb) and a white mother (bb), the following gametes will be produced by the following parent:
Bb - B and b
bb - b and b
Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the probability of 1/2 of the offsprings will possess white fur (bb). Based on this result, the white female is able to give birth to all white rabbits because the male rabbit contributed the white allele (b).
The different components that make up blood. Plasma, white blood cells, red blood cells, platelets.
Plasma is the main component of blood and consists mostly of water, with proteins, ions, nutrients, and wastes mixed in.
Red blood cells are responsible for carrying oxygen and carbon dioxide.
Platelets are responsible for blood clotting.
(White blood cells are part of the immune system and function in immune response.)
