Consider a cell that requires much more ribose5‑phosphate than NADPH. The cell needs ribose 5‑phosphate but has a relatively hig
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.

If we compare the genetic codes of the four organisms seen here, which statement is MOST accurate?
bezimeni [28]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

All four organisms have exactly the same components in their DNA, but it varies in number and sequence

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>DNA, known as deoxyribonucleic acid is a type of nucleic acid which is important to all living organisms as it helps store genetic information.</u></em>
  • <em><u>All living organisms store their genetic information using DNA molecules or RNA molecules. Most organisms contains DNA that have similar components, however their DNA will differ in number and also the sequences. </u></em>
  • <em><u>The similarity between the molecules of DNA indicates a common ancestry among organisms. </u></em>

You've been experiencing acid indigestion lately, and you'd like a quick fix for the problem. You do a little research on the In
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

<em>C: After 1 hour, the pH of the solution in the PEPCID AC beaker was 9.2 and the pH of the solution in the Alka-Seltzer beaker was 8.3</em>

Explanation:

The degree of acidity or alkalinity/basicity of a substance is its pH. The value of pH ranges from 1 to 14 with the former being extreme acidity and the latter being extreme alkalinity while pH 7 is considered neutral.

Hence, any pH below 7 is considered acidic and above 7 is considered alkaline.

Reactions involving equal volumes of an acid and a base can end in acidic, alkaline or neutral pH depending on the strength of the acid/base involved;

  • Equal volumes of strong acid with strong base will result in neutral pH
  • Equal volumes of weak acid with strong base will result in alkaline pH
  • Equal volume of strong acid with weak base will result in acidic pH

If substance A and B reacts with equal volume of the same acid under the same condition and the end result of A is a solution with pH of 9.2 and that of B is a pH of 8.3, it simply means substance A is a stronger base than substance B.

<em>Hence, the only outcome that supports the hypothesis that a tablet of PEPCID AC can neutralize more stomach acid than a tablet of Alka-Seltzer is that the pH of the solution in the PEPCID AC beaker was 9.2 and the pH of the solution in the Alka-Seltzer beaker was 8.3 after being subjected to the same condition.</em>

If an indigestion is due to excess stomach acid, the only way to reduce the acidity is to consume a substance that will decrease the degree of acidity in the stomach. This means that the patient will need to consume something that is alkaline in order to increase the pH.
