saul85 [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

GAR and AICAR transformylase

Explanation:

Tetrahydrofolate is essential for purine and pyrimidine synthesis, its deficiency can lead to inhibition of nucleic acid such as DNA and RNA and protein synthesis, which are important for the growth and survival of both normal cells and cancer cells. N-10-formyltetrahydrofolate acts as a donor of  carbon atoms to the actively growing bases. It contribution is mediated by the action of the Glycinamide Ribonucleotide (GAR) transformylase and the N-5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide (AICAR) transformylase.

What allows for some substances to be reabsorbed and others to leak from the tubule in the enthrone?
MAXImum [283]
The right answer is <span>A) semi-permeable membrane

<span>A semi-permeable membrane is a membrane permeable to a liquid (solvent) and impermeable (or poorly permeable) to substances dissolved in the liquid (solute).

</span>The tubule of a kidney consists of a semi-permeable membrane and has also specific transporters which allow absorption and reabsorption. These "tools" allows some substances like ions to be absorbed/reabsorbed (by the transporters), without any changes in the concentration of the other substances (because both the membrane and the transporters stopped them).</span>
