Options are not provided in the question. The complete question is:

What exactly is the link between the extra glycogen associated with carbohydrate loading and enhanced performance in endurance sports?

a. The extra glycogen serves as a reservoir for glucose, which serves as the main fuel molecule for increased cellular respiration, resulting in more available ATP.

b. The extra glycogen undergoes the process of deamination, which is the first step in the breakdown of the carbon chains needed for ATP synthesis.

c.The extra glycogen is used during beta oxidation, which is a series of chemical reactions resulting in the formation of acetyl coenzyme A, which is essential to start the citric acid cycle of aerobic cellular respiration.

d. All of the listed responses explain the link between carbohydrate loading and enhanced performance in endurance sports.

Answer:

a.

Explanation:

Glycogen is a multibranched polysaccharide of glucose which represents the main storage form of glucose in the body.

During sports, a lot of energy is required. The glycogen serves to fulfil all the enrgy requirement of the body. The extra glycogen associated with carbohydrate or glucose serves energy to cellular respiration due to increase in physical actvities and provide more ATP.

Hence, the correct option is a.

Which include the male and female sex cells?<br> gametes<br> chromosomes<br> eukaryotes<br> diploids
rusak2 [61]

GAMETES is made up of the male and the female sex cells.

The female sex cell is called the ovum while the male sex cell is called sperm. When these two sex cells come together during fertilization they form the gamete, which is made up of diploid number of chromosomes. Gametes are normally formed through meiosis, during the cell division, the germ cell undergo two fission, which results in four gametes,

You extract DNA from some of your cells and cut out the complete human growth hormone gene directly from this DNA. You put this
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

A) Bacteria cannot carry out RNA splicing to remove introns and so produced a much larger protein.

Explanation:

Human is a eukaryote and has both introns and exons in its genes. Transcription of human genes forms a primary transcript that undergoes post-transcriptional modification.

One of the important even during the post-transcriptional modification is the removal of introns and joining the exons together to make a mature mRNA which in turn serves as the template for protein synthesis.

<em>E. coli</em> is a prokaryote and does not have the enzymatic machinery required for the splicing of introns.

Cloning of a complete human gene into the <em>E. coli</em> cells would not form the respective human protein since the bacterial cells would not be able to splice the introns from the primary transcript.

Where do the cells project through the ethmoid bone and synapse with the olfactory bulbs?
VikaD [51]
<span>The afferent nerve fibres of the olfactory receptor neurons transmit nerve signal about odours to the CNS. From the olfactory mucosa (inside the nasal cavity), the nerve travels up through the cribriform plate of the ethmoid bone where the fascicles enter the olfactory bulb<span>. The olfactory</span> bulb is a structure which contains specialised neurones, called mitral cells and the nerve fibres synapse with those mitral cells, forming collections known as synaptic glomeruli. From the glomeruli, second order nerves then pass into the olfactory tract which runs to the CNS (</span>primary olfactory cortex).
