A hypothetical three-step metabolic pathway consists of the intermediates W, X, Y, and Z, and the enzymes that catalyze the reac

tions A, B, and C. Determine the order of the metabolic pathway and the enzymes that catalyze the reactions based on the following information: 1) An inhibitor of enzyme B causes Z to build up 2) An organism with a mutation in enzyme C requires Y to grow. 3) An inhibitor of enzyme A causes W, Y, and Z to build up. 4) An inhibitor of enzyme C causes W and Z to build up. You MUST provide your answers using capital letters and place the enzymes that catalyze each reaction in between the intermediates (e.g. WAXBYCZ would be the answer if the pathway was W -> X -> Y -> Z and the enzymes A, B, and C catalyze the first, second, and third reactions respectively). Do NOT include spaces!

Answer:

ZBWCYAX

Explanation:

Equation for the intermediates: Z↔W↔Y↔X

1) B catalyzes the breakdown of Z, therefore inhibiting B leads to the build up of Z.

2) If enzyme C is inactive then the organism will not  receive Y to grow, thus Y is a by-product of C.

3) If A is inhibited then W, Y and Z build except for X, thus it make sense that A catalyzes a reaction that leads to X as a by-product.

4) Inhibiting C leads to the reaction toward making Z and W, thus it catalyzes the breakdown of C directly and Z indirectly.

The term __________ refers to lack of control over bowel movements that is not caused by an organic problem.
damaskus [11]

The term faecal incontinence refers to lack of control over bowel movements that is not caused by an organic problem.

The inability to control bowel motions results in faeces (stool) leaking unexpectedly from the rectum in faecal incontinence. Fecal incontinence, also known as bowel incontinence, can range from the infrequent leakage of faeces when passing gas to a total lack of bowel control.

Faecal incontinence is frequently brought on by muscle or nerve injury, constipation, and diarrhoea. Damage to the muscles or nerves may be brought on by ageing or giving birth. Faecal incontinence can also develop in those who are unaware that they need to pass stool. We refer to this as passive incontinence.

Therefore, The term faecal incontinence refers to lack of control over bowel movements that is not caused by an organic problem.
