<span>One function of stems is to physically support leaves in a position to maximize photosynthesis. In large trees, the support function of stems is primarily due to xylem. 
Xylem is the tissue in stems that bring water upwards so that the plant can get what it needs. It's a one way only passage upwards as opposed to the phloem vessel that goes both ways.

Hope this helps.</span>

The metabolic fate of fatty acids is dependent on two enzymes, carnitine acyltransferase i and acetyl-coa carboxylase. carnitine
zvonat [6]

The correct answer is the last statement.

If the regulatory serine is mutated to alanine, then acetyl-CoA carboxylase will get activated spontaneously and will produce malonyl-CoA. The increased concentrations of malonyl-CoA will obstruct the oxidation of fatty acids by preventing the entry of fatty acids into the mitochondria.

It is because the AMP-activated protein kinase phosphorylates the serine residues of acetyl-CoA carboxylase to inactivate it. If a mutation occurs in such residues, then the AMPL cannot phosphorylate acetyl-CoA carboxylase and this enzyme will get activated spontaneously.

In such a situation, there will be more than sufficient production of malonyl-CoA, which will inhibit the admittance of more fatty acid getting inside the mitochondria; this will indirectly prevent the oxidation of fatty acids.

The cactus has a specialized fleshy stem and it's leaves function only for protection. Which plant tissues most likely makes up
wolverine [178]
The stem is most likely made up of vascular tissues. The main vessels present on vascular tissue are the xylem and phloem. These two tissues work as pipes for the transport of water and nutrients inside the stem. Xylem transports water and some nutrients from the roots. The Phloem <span>transports the soluble organic compounds that were produced during </span>photosynthesis from the leaves, and in the case of the cactus photosynthesis happens on the actual stem,<span> to the rest of the plant.</span>
