Answer:
The correct answer is True
Explanation:
<u>The first step in glycogen synthesis (glycogenesis) is the phosphorylation of glucose to form glucose-6-phosphate</u>, which is catalyzed by hexokinase. [This step is also the first step in the glycolytic pathway]. Glucose-6-phosphate is then isomerized to glucose-1-phosphate by the action of phosphoglucomutase. This glucose-i-phosphate is then converted to glycogen by glycogen synthase.
Answer :There was enough oxygen in the atmosphere to support a major burst of life on Earth
Explanation:
The Great Oxygen Event marks the time, approximately 2.5 billion years ago, when there was enough oxygen in the atmosphere to support a major burst of life on Earth
For the first half of the Earht's history, there was no oxygen in the atmosphere. It was inhabited only by single-celled organisms.Of those simple life forms, the cyanobacteria may have. evolved a way to take energy from sunlight, and used it to make sugars out of water and carbon dioxide. They used the same chemical process we know as photosynthesis. This released vast quantities of oxygen into the atmosphere and triggered the evolution of complex life.
Answer:
It represents the first stage in the chemical oxidation of glucose by a cell.
Explanation:
Glycolysis is the first stage of oxidation of glucose by the process of cellular respiration. Glycolysis includes the breakdown of one molecule of glucose into two molecules of pyruvate. Substrate level phosphorylation forms net 2 ATP molecules and the redox reactions of glycolysis uses NAD+ as an electron acceptor resulting in the formation of 2 NADH.
Therefore, one molecule of glucose obtains 2 pyruvate molecules, 2ATP and 2 NADH by glycolysis. The fate of pyruvate depends on the availability of oxygen. Citric acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation are the next two stages of aerobic cellular respiration.
This is apoptosis. in reference to sunburn, this is when cells die in order to protect you and your skin from damaged skin DNA (possibly cancer causing).
