Feedback inhibition is important for the regulation of many metabolic pathways. Which of the statements are examples of feedback

inhibition? The beginning of glycolysis is inhibited by high levels of ATP in the cell. The production of tryptophan is halted by the presence of excess tryptophan. An intermediate of glycolysis activates an enzyme downstream in the pathway. Arsenic binds to pyruvate dehydrogenase and inhibits the enzyme. The lac operon is not transcribed when there is no lactose present.

Answer:

  • The beginning of glycolysis is inhibited by high levels of ATP in the cell.
  • The production of tryptophan is halted by presence of excess tryptophan.

Explanation:

As you may already know, the feedback mechanism is extremely important as homeostasis, that is, the balance of our body. This mechanism is composed of a group of responses produced biologically to some stimulus that is causing an imbalance somewhere in the body.

However, the balance of our organism often needs to promote the inhibition of the feedback mechanism, mainly related to the overproduction of a certain molecule. Two examples that may show an inhibition of the feedback mechanism are:

  • The beginning of glycolysis is inhibited by high levels of ATP in the cell.
  • The production of tryptophan is halted by presence of excess tryptophan.

Explain why a bone is referred to as a living tissue?​
marissa [1.9K]

Bones are living tissue which have their own blood vessels and are made of various cells, proteins, minerals and vitamins. This structure enables them to grow, transform and repair themselves throughout life.During childhood and adolescence, cartilage grows and is slowly replaced by hard bone.That is why children bones are a little harder to break but adult bone a little easier to break because there bone gets harder when they grow :)

Hope this helps :)

olga55 [171]
No net primary production occurs BELOW THE OCEAN DEPTH WHERE LIGHT IS 1% OF SURFACE LIGHT.

Net primary production = <span>gross photosynthetic carbon fixation - the carbon respired to support maintenance requirements of the whole plant.

In short, net primary production is the "available" carbon left for to aid in plant growth and consumption of other heterotrophic organisms.</span>

Summarize Mendel's experiment. ( Mendel's Peas)
Anit [1.1K]
Gregor Mendel lived in an Austrian monastery and tended the monastery garden. In 1865, through his observations of the garden pea plants that grew there, Mendel developed three basic principles that—although ignored at the time by his scientific colleagues—would later become the foundation for the new science of genetics.Every pea plant contains both male and female reproductive parts and will normally reproduce through self-pollination.

Describe the stages of cellular respiration?
babymother [125]
<span>here are three main stages of cellular respiration: glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and electron transport/oxidative phosphorylation. Glycolysis literally means "splitting sugars.". Glucose, a six carbon sugar, is split into two molecules of a three carbon sugar. Glycolysis takes place in the cell's cytoplasm.</span>
