Answer:
To find the extinct species and their divergence of characters can be studied using molecular genetic techniques.
Explanation:
- Paleontology is the study of ancient species and their remaining that were found millions of years ago. These species extinction can be found and manipulated to find out the origin or divergence of species from their origin
- The samples of these species may contains their remains that help the biologist to isolate and analyze their protein or DNA. when the DNA is isolated their sequences can be generated using molecular biology techniques.
- When the sequences are identified by advanced molecular biology techniques, the existence and similarities of different species due to their convergence or divergence can be identified.
- By identifying the convergence or divergence the characteristics, evolutionary change in behavior, variation in appearance can be studied.
- By using these techniques, biologist have found that <em>homo sapiens</em> are 99% have their similarities with chimpanzee
- Thus, using genetics in paleontology helps us to understand adaptation a species is changing according to the evolutionary changes.
Answer:
This question lacks options, options are:
A) ATP
B) NADP
C) Pryuvate
D) glucose
E) acetyl-CoA.
The correct answer is C) Pyruvate.
Explanation:
Pyruvate is a very important compound for the cell since it is a key substrate for energy production and glucose synthesis (neo-glycogenesis), that is, pyruvate is the end product of glucose breakdown in glycolysis. Before entering the mitochondria, it can be converted to lactate, through an anaerobic reaction (in the absence or under oxygen supply) of low performance in energy production, when the main pathway is interfered with. It can also be converted to the amino acid alanine. Within the mitochondria, it can be transformed, by pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH), into acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA), the entry point (substrate) of the Krebs cycle. In addition, by means of pyruvate carboxylase, it can be transformed into oxalacetate, which constitutes the first step in neoglycogenesis.
