Answer:
So that oxidation of pyruvate can take place in mitochondria.
Explanation:
Pyruvates is produced in the glycolysis process which occurs in the cytoplasm. So pyruvate is produced in the cytoplasm of the cell. Pyruvate is produced by partial oxidation of glucose and to be fully oxidized it has to enter in the mitochondria.
So after entering the mitochondria the pyruvate first converts into acetyl CoA than this acetyl CoA enters in the citric acid cycle and fully oxidized into CO2. This oxidation generated NADP and FADH2 which provide reducing power during oxidative phosphorylation.
Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
Normal height - H
Short height - h
Heterozygous - Hh
A cross involving heterozygotes would be Hh x Hh
Hh x Hh
HH Hh Hh hh
Since H is dominant over h;
HH and Hh would produce normal height phenotypes.
hh will produce a short height phenotype.
Thus;
<em>Probability of normal height phenotype resulting from the cross = 3/4 or 75%</em>
<em>Probability of short height phenotype resulting from the cross = 1/4 or 25%</em>
A gasoline car typically uses a spark-ignited internal combustion engine, rather than the compression-ignited systems used in diesel vehicles. In a spark-ignited system, the fuel is injected into the combustion chamber and combined with air. The air/fuel mixture is ignited by a spark from the spark plug.
