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.

Name the form of nitrogen which higher plants use​
Tresset [83]

Answer:

Nitrate

Nitrate is the form of nitrogen most used by plants for growth and development. Nitrate is the form that can most easily be lost to groundwater. Ammonium taken in by plants is used directly in proteins. This form is not lost as easily from the soil.

Answer: 1. a. logistics model of growth

2. a. environmental conditions

3. b. all limiting factors

4. b. water availability

Explanation:

1. a. logistic model of growth will show the increase in population of a species in accordance with the carrying capacity exponentially but when the population will experience the scarcity of resources it will decline considerably.

Carrying capacity is the total number of members of the population of a species that an ecosystem can sustain by providing resources.

2. b. All environmental conditions which favor the survival of the living beings will contribute to the carrying capacity for example food, water, shelter, and other resources.

3. b. Limiting factor is the one which limit the chances of survival and growth of a particular species in an ecosystem. For example, scarcity of food, here food is the limiting factor.

4. d.  A density dependent limiting factor is the one which affects the population of the species based upon the density. The water availability is a density dependent limiting factor because the more the density or abundance of a population more will be the scarcity of water as it will be required by all organisms. So, the species population may experience decline due scarcity of water.
