Of the options you provided, re-absorption of water is not a direct function of the verebrate liver.

this is done by the excretory & urinary systems - mostly by large intestine to be more exact. The kidneys also play a role in water re-absorption, but they don't play as a significant of a role as the large intestines, which usues many many villi to re-absorb water beofre it's lost during excretion.

Pyruvate carboxylase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase catalyze reactions of gluconeogenesis that bypass the reaction of gly
dem82 [27]

Pyruvate carboxylase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase catalyze reactions of gluconeogenesis that bypass the reaction of glycolysis that is catalyzed by pyruvate kinase.

<h3>Gluconeogenesis:</h3>

The tissues of some organs, including the brain, the eye, and the kidney, use glucose as their primary or only source of metabolic fuel. Glycogen stores become exhausted during a protracted fast or intense exercise, and glucose must be created from scratch to keep blood glucose levels stable. The process through which glucose is created from non-hexose precursors such glycerol, lactate, pyruvate, and glucogenic amino acids is known as gluconeogenesis.

Glycolysis is effectively reversed during glucose synthesis. However, gluconeogenesis makes use of four distinct enzymes to skip the three highly exergonic (and essentially irreversible) phases of glycolysis. The pyruvate carboxylase, PEP carboxykinase, fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase, and glucose 6-phosphatase enzymes are specific to gluconeogenesis. Gluconeogenesis can only take place in particular tissues because these enzymes are not found in all cell types. In humans, the liver and, to a lesser extent, the renal cortex are the primary locations for gluconeogenesis.

Archaea and bacteria are similar in which of the following ways?
gulaghasi [49]

Answer: Option A and B.

Archaea and bacteria are prokaryote and reproduce by binary fission.

Explanation:

Archaea are grouped of single celled organisms that have no cell nuclei. They are prokaryotes and reproduce by binary fission. They were formally grouped as bacteria with the name archaeabacteria but the classification is outmolded. They are now renamed as archaea bacteria as they are closely related to eukaryotes.

Bacteria also are single celled, microscopic organisms. They are prokaryotes and they reproduce by binary fission. They have are number of shapes ranging from spheres to rods.
