Brass doorknobs exhibit an effect known as The Oligodynamic Effect.

This property of a metal means that it will react with the amine groups of enzymes or protein found in bacteria, and kill them.

Most heavy metals exhibit this antiseptic ability.

That the doorknob isn't used that recently by students, since they don't really use that to study.

Epithelial tissue always has an exposed outer surface and an inner surface anchored to connective tissue by a thin, non- cellula
Rashid [163]

The basement membrane is the thin, non-cellular structure of connective tissue that separates the lining of an internal surface and external surface from underlying connective tissue in metazoans.

The epithelium is a type of body tissue that covers all internal and exterior body surfaces, lines hollow organs and body cavities, and makes up most of the glandular tissue. The body comprises four types of tissues; depending on the location, connectives, muscular, nervous, and Epithelial, which perform the function of protection, secretion, and absorption.

Some examples of epithelial tissues in your body are the outer layer of the skin called the epidermis, the sweat glands, respiratory tract lining, intestines lining, etc. you can also read more on Epithelial tissue.

I have mutant cells that make no pfk2enzyme. i measure rates of oxygen consumption in these mutant cells and compare them to wil
Kazeer [188]

The correct answer is that mutant cells will exhibit diminished oxygen consumption; decreased glycolysis results in decreased Kreb's cycle and electron transport chain.

The PFK2 enzyme catalyzes the generation of F26BP, this binds with the allosteric site of PFK-1 and increases the affinity of PFK-1 with F6P and also decreases the affinity of allosteric inhibitors citrate and ATP to PFK-1. Thus, PFK-1 will combine with F6P at a greater rate.

This ultimately results in more glycolysis, thus, more ETC and more consumption of O2. If there is no PFK2, then there will be a reduction in glycolysis, TCA, ETC, and consumption of oxygen.

The PFK2 is an enzyme accountable for monitoring the rates of gluconeogenesis and glycolysis in the human body. In the absence of glycolysis, there will be a reduction in TCA, ETC, and consumption of O2.
