Answer:

3.inactivated by phosphorylation.

Explanation:

Glycogen synthase is an enzyme, glycosyltransferase  that is involved in the conversion of glucose into glycogen. There are two ways of the regulation of glycogen synthase:

  • allosteric regulation- via glucose-6-phosphate, which is activator of the enzyme
  • by phosphorilation-it deactivates the enzyme and it is triggered by glucagon from the pancreas.

The regulation of glycogen synthase is very important for  glycogen metabolism and glucose storage.

In the area near an old copper mine,no plant grow. Go further away more and more plants are growing. An analysis of the soil nea
maks197457 [2]

Plants do not grow near the old copper mine because of the excess copper deposited in them impairs cellular processes and inhibits plant growth.

What are micronutrients?

These are required by plants in much smaller quantities less than 1% of the dry weight but are necessary for growth and development. There are 7 essential plant nutrients like boron (B), zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), molybdenum (Mo), and, chlorine (Cl).

Copper activates some enzymes in plants that are involved in lignin synthesis and are required in the process of photosynthesis.

Excess copper causes reduced seed germination, low shoot vigour, and lower iron availability. A deficiency of copper can lead to increased to susceptibility to diseases like ergot, which can cause significant loss in the yield.

Plants growing in the old copper mine have the excess deposition of copper in one place which affects the germination of seeds hence it is found difficult to grow in the old copper mine.

Plants can grow easily in a place that is further away from the old copper mine. Because there is a high concentration of copper dissolved in water in the soil, this helps the plant to grow by exhibiting the photosynthesis process.

What is the function of meristem
Stells [14]

Primary meristematic tissue helps the plant increase in length or vertical growth, meaning it helps the plant grow up toward the sun and down into the soil. It also helps a plant grow in thickness so that the roots and branches are stronger.

hope this helps :)

Identify two means by which meiosis results in genetically unique gametes, and explain why this is important.
Rashid [163]

Explanation:

Meiosis is beneficial as it produces gametes that are genetically different to the parent cell, and when the gametes combine the offspring produced is made from combination of genes from both mother and father. The offspring is genetically unique, there is no other organism on the Earth with the exact same DNA sequences on their chromosomes.
