You learned about the aptly named enzyme Citrate Synthase. There are more enzymes that count citrate as substrate or product. Co

mpare and contrast two reactions below that each split two carbons from citrate to make oxaloacetate. One catalyzed by the enzyme ATP Citrate Lyase and the second catalyzed by Citrate Lyase.
Acetyl-CoA
Citrate → ↑ → Oxaloacetate lyase
CoA-SH → ↑ ↑ ←ATP ↓→ ADP + Pi
ATP Citrate
Acetate
Citrate → ↑ ↓→ Oxaloacetate
Citrate lyase

Which of the following is an accurate statement about why ATP is required by ATP Citrate Lyase?

a) The hydrolysis of the thioester involving CoA-SH helps split ATP into ADP and Pi.
b) The hydrolysis of ATP helps "pay for the formation of a thioester involving CoA-SH.
c) The Acetyl-CoA is pulled rapidly away to make lipids so the reaction needs extra energy to make it fast enough to keep up with demand.
d) The two carbons of acetate are more energetic than those on Acetyl-CoA and therefore don't need ATP to split them from citrate.
e) ATP is required to spit the two carbons from citrate.

Answer:

b) The hydrolysis of ATP helps "pay for the formation of a thioester involving CoA-SH.

Explanation:

In the citrate cycle, we know that lysis is mediated by the hydrolysis of ATP, which is the fuel of the reaction, so the correct answer is B. The hydrolysis of ATP helps "pay for the formation of a thioester involving CoA-SH.

Why is important the cell have a control sytem to regulate the timing of cell division?<br>​
-Dominant- [34]

Answer: It is important that cells have a "control system" because without it cells would either divide too fast or cause tumors to grow (cancer), or divide too slow and not be able to perform their cellular functions which is why the cells are controlled.

Briefly explain the relationship between cells, organs and tissues
Mazyrski [523]

Answer/Explanation:

Cells of a similar type are organized together to make tissues. Different types of tisues come together to perform a similar function as part of organs.

For example, take the organ the stomach. There are various tissues that make up the stomach, including, for example, mucosa, and muscle tissue.

The mucosa tissue of the stomach is made up of secretory cells such as parietal cells, which secrete hydrochloric acid, and foveolar cells which produce mucus that protects the lining of the stomach.

How do the amount of daylight hours differ between the Poles and the
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Explanation:

When you are in the northern hemisphere, you are near the north pole. If you are in the Southern Hemisphere, you are closer to the South Pole. As you probably already know, the earth is tilted. When you are closer to the equator, your number of daylight hours increase. The farther you are from the equator, the less daylight you will receive.
