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.

1. Which of the following are factors that both unicellular and multicellular organisms actively balance in order to achieve hom
MrMuchimi
The correct options are as follows:
1. C
Homeostasis is the process by which living organisms maintains constant internal environment. Maintaining homeostasis is very important because the survival of the living organism depend on it. In order to maintain homeostasis, the amount of wastes, nutrients and water that is in an organism must be controlled and maintained at optimum level.
2. A.
An organism that can not maintain an homeostasis will die. This is because, lack of homeostasis will disrupt the biochemical reactions which sustains the life activities of the organism and once the biochemical reactions that produce life energy can no longer take place the organism will die.
3. A.
For both unicellular and multi cellular organisms, when they are exposed to water containing no salt, much of the water will move into their cells. This happened because, the level of salt in the interior of the living cells is higher and so the water will move from the medium which has no salt to the inside to the cell where there is salt. This process is known as osmosis. In osmosis water move through a semi permeable membrane from the region of low salt concentration level to the region of higher salt level concentration.
4. D.
Cells in living organisms are able to maintain homeostasis by specializing in specific functions and by working together in cooperatively. Each cell has its own functions which it performs; in the process of its duty, it communicates with other cells which also help it in order to achieve common goals, which is maintenance of homeostasis within the cell.
