A human cell has a mutation in the gene that encodes the enzyme that generates lactate from pyruvate, rendering that enzyme comp

letely non-functional.
Assuming that there is ample glucose present, how would this cell generate energy in the presence of oxygen?

A) Glycolysis coupled with ethanol fermentation.
B) Aerobic respiration.
C) Primarily through the break down of proteins into amino acids.
D) This cell would have no way to generate energy under these conditions. because it cannot carry out the reactions needed for glycolysis

Answer:

<h2>B</h2>

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the process of production of pyruvate from glucose by various enzymatic steps.

This pyruvate is further used in different ways;  as it is differently used in the presence of oxygen or in the absence of oxygen.

In the absence of oxygen, lactate is generated form  pyruvate, as given here, if this enzyme is non-functional, then lactate would not be produced.

In the presence of oxygen, pyruvate is oxidized in TCA cycle and finally through electron transport chain, energy in generated.

Assuming she reproduces with someone who doesn't have the color blind gene:

XcXc * XCY

There are 4 combinations

XcXC

XcXC

XcY

XcY

As both of the males have the Xc gene, she can expect 100% of her male offspring to be colorblind.

This feature of DNA is termed complimentary base pairing, in that the base that compliments a certain base, say A, is always paired with base T, and likewise every T has its pair partner always as A. The same holds true with C with G, and vice versa.
