What is the food you eat used for

Biology
1 answer:
pishuonlain [190]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

This energy comes from the food we eat. Our bodies digest the food we eat by mixing it with fluids (acids and enzymes) in the stomach. When the stomach digests food, the carbohydrate (sugars and starches) in the food breaks down into another type of sugar, called glucose.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae (a yeast species) mutants are available that grow on pyruvate or ethanol, but not sugars or glycerol.
mezya [45]

Answer:

The enzyme is the pyruvate kinase

Explanation:

The designated enzyme can only grow in pyruvate or in ethanol. They are said to be in anaerobic conditions. If the end product of glycolysis is pyruvate and the enzyme that transforms phosphoenol pyruvate into pyruvate is called pyruvate kinase. In a reaction under anaerobic conditions, the pyruvate is transformed into ethanol. So if the pyruvate kinase enzyme is mutated, pyruvate cannot be transformed into ethanol and Saccharomyces cerevisiae could not survive in that medium.

Fill in the blanks: The original organism is called the _____________, and new organisms are called the _____________.
NARA [144]

Answer:

The original organism is called the <u><em>parent (ancestor)</em></u> , and new organisms are called the <u><em>offspring</em></u>.

Explanation:

Reproduction is one of the characteristics of life. Every living organism tends to give rise to another organism. The organism which gives rise to another organism is termed as the parent. The organism which is born is known as the offspring.

There are two basic methods of reproduction. An organism can give rise to another organism by the method of asexual or sexual reproduction.

During asexual reproduction, identical copies of the parent organism are made. During sexual reproduction, two organisms reproduce to produce non-identical offsprings.

Which compound is a reusable, complex protein that speeds up chemical reactions?
Irina-Kira [14]
Hello there! 

The answer is enzymes. 
Enzymes are biological catalysts, which means they decrease the amount of activation energy needed to start a reaction, therefore speeding up the rate of the reaction. They are part of the protein macromolecule group. Without them, our bodies would not process things efficiently or fast enough for us to live.

Hope I helped. Have a nice day.
