Answer:
Explanation:
Normally, under anaerobic condition in yeast, pyruvate produced from glycolysis leads to the production of ethanol as shown below.
pyruvate ⇒ acetaldehyde + NADH ⇒ ethanol + NAD
The pyruvate is converted to acetaldehyde by the enzyme, pyruvate decarboxylase. It should be NOTED that carbon dioxide is released in this step. The acetaldehyde produced in the "first step" is then converted to ethanol by the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase. It must be noted from the above that the steps are irreversible.
If a mutated strain of yeast is unique because it does not produce alcohol and lactic acid (which is referred to as toxic acid in the question); thus having a high level of pyruvate because of the presence of a novel enzyme. <u>The function of this novel enzyme will most likely be the conversion of acetaldehyde in the presence of carbondioxide back to pyruvate; thus making that step reversible</u>. This could be a possible explanation for the high level of pyruvate present in the yeast.
Answer:
B. Plants in the desert would have a decreased number of stomata compared to rainforest plants.
Sets of transcription factor proteins buying a specific DNA sequences in or near a gene and promote or repress its transcription into RNA. Which i believe its C
What are you trying to ask?
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Ash from the fire helps restore nutrients
Fires clear out the brush along the ground level before they reach the trees, hence clearing the way to prevent larger fires
Eucalyptus and pine only feed after a fire event when the soil is rich
Therefore the odd one out is C
