They are thus known as the "supporting cells" of the nervous system. The four main functions of glial cells are: to surround neurons and hold them in place, to supply nutrients and oxygen to neurons, to insulate one neuron from another, and to destroy and remove the carcasses of dead neurons (clean up).

6. When the end product of a pathway inhibits catalysis of the first step of that pathway, this phenomenon is called A. reversib
Ilya [14]

Answer:

B) Feedback inhibition

Explanation:

Feedback inhibition is a situation in which the end product of a reaction controls the action of the enzyme that helped produce it. In this process the end products formed at the end of a sequence of reactions participate in inhibiting the activity of the enzymes that helped synthesis the end product. Some examples of products that are used in feedback inhibition are CTP, citrate and Isoleucine. While negative feedback is used in the context of inhibition, negative feedback may also be used for promoting a certain process.

Therefore, when the end product of a pathway inhibits catalysis of the first step of that pathway, this phenomenon is called Feedback inhibition.

What’s the Answer to this
ad-work [718]

The disk diffusion test is used to compare the effectiveness of antibiotics. The incubated plate (results) will show bacteria growth except where antibiotic has effects. The more effective the drug, the inhibition zone will be greater. So the most effective antibiotic is the one that has the largest inhibition zone around the test site.
