Answer:

C

Explanation:

pyruvate dehydrogenase is the enzyme which catalysis pyruvate to acetyl Co -A. Thus,it  ensures the formation of link reaction/ bridge reaction for linking glycolysis with Citric acid cycle. Therefore, inhibition of this enzyme, prevent link reaction, and there reduction in pyruvate utilization and therefore prevent the  commencements of Citric acid cycle, with consequent  reduction in glucose oxidation. as there is no  reaction of acetyl Co A (from link reaction from pyruvate )   with 4C oxaloacatate in the kreb Cycle to form Citrate in Kreb's cycle. Thus the heart  depends on fatty acid supply for energy.

Answer:

Introduction In ecology and biology, abiotic components are non-living chemical and physical factors in the environment which affect ecosystems. Biotic describes a living component of an ecosystem; for example organisms, such as plants and animals. Examples Water, light, wind, soil, humidity, minerals, gases.

During DNA replication, a DNA strand that has the bases GGTCTA produces a strand with the bases
Natasha2012 [34]
CCAGAT , or B.

The reason why is because A only pairs with T, and G only pairs with C. So, if you have a strand with GGTCTA, the only possible pairing for that to replicate is CCAGAT.

For both actin and microtubule polymerization, nucleotide hydrolysis is important for ______. Group of answer choices promoting
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

For both actin and microtubule polymerization, nucleotide hydrolysis is important for decreasing the binding strength between subunits on filaments.

Explanation:

Cytoskeletal filaments are common to eucaryotic cells and are impotartant to the spatial organization of cells. Intermediate filaments provide mechanical strength and resistance to shear stress. Microtubules determine the positions of membrane-enclosed organelles and direct intracellular transport. Actin filaments determine the shape of the cell's surface and are necessary for whole-cell locomotion. A large number of accessory proteins are present that link the filaments to other cell components, as well as to each other. Accessory proteins are essential for the assembly of the cytoskeletal filaments in particular locations, and it includes the motor proteins that either move organelles along the filaments or move the filaments themselves.

Actin filaments and microtubules are assembled with expenditure of energy i.e the ATP/GTP tightly bound to actin/tubulin is irreversibly hydrolyzed to ADP/GTP during the assembly process, and liberation of Pi in the medium occurs subsequent to the incorporation of subunits in the polymer. Pi release acts as a switch, causing the destabilization of protein-protein interactions in the polymer, therefore regulating the dynamics of these fibres. The progress is made in four areas: the chemistry of the NTPase reaction; the structure of the intermediates in nucleotide hydrolysis and the nature of the conformational switch; the regulation of parameters involved in dynamic instability of microtubules; and the possible involvement of nucleotide hydrolysis in the macroscopic organization of these polymers in highly concentrated solutions, compared with the simple case of a equilibrium polymers.
