Answer:

c) atoms from tyrosine`s sidechain enter the citric acid cycle as fumarate.

Explanation:

Tyrosine is an aminoacid that can be considered as glucogenic and ketogenic, it catabolims are divided in two  ways.

As a glucogenic aminoacid, first it transforms to fumarate then to oxaloacetate to get some glucose at the end of the citric acid cycle.

But in the other hand, also is going to produce acetoacetate and then acetyl CoA to enter into the citric acid cycle.

Why doesnt plants and bacteria expand when it reaches water
kap26 [50]

When the plants and bacteria reach water, they get into a hypotonic solution means, the concentration of solutes is greater inside the cell than outside of it. When the plant and bacteria are placed in water, they take up water by osmosis and starts to swell, but the cell wall prevents it from bursting. The plant cell become turgid. Turgidity means the cells are swollen and hard. The increase in pressure makes the cell rigid. This is why they do not expand and burst.
