The correct answer is that mutant cells will exhibit diminished oxygen consumption; decreased glycolysis results in decreased Kreb's cycle and electron transport chain.

The PFK2 enzyme catalyzes the generation of F26BP, this binds with the allosteric site of PFK-1 and increases the affinity of PFK-1 with F6P and also decreases the affinity of allosteric inhibitors citrate and ATP to PFK-1. Thus, PFK-1 will combine with F6P at a greater rate.

This ultimately results in more glycolysis, thus, more ETC and more consumption of O2. If there is no PFK2, then there will be a reduction in glycolysis, TCA, ETC, and consumption of oxygen.

The PFK2 is an enzyme accountable for monitoring the rates of gluconeogenesis and glycolysis in the human body. In the absence of glycolysis, there will be a reduction in TCA, ETC, and consumption of O2.

Are amplitude and wavelength related
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Below! ;)

Explanation:

The amplitude of a wave is the height of a wave as measured from the highest point on the wave (peak or crest) to the lowest point on the wave (trough). Wavelength refers to the length of a wave from one peak to the next. Wavelength is directly related to the frequency of a given wave form.

Hope this helps!

Have a nice day!

Which natural events likely caused Earth's past mass extinctions?
adelina 88 [10]
In my opinion

Mass extinctions happen because of climate change, asteroid impacts, massive volcanic eruptions or a combination of these causes. One famous mass extinction event is the one that lead to the extinction of dinosaurs, 65 million years ago.

Hello, if any one knows how to fill in a punnet square please help meeeeee
omeli [17]
You can fill the sides with any allele.
After that the first box will be the dominant allele than the recessive allele, the box below that will be the dominant allele and the recessive allele. Dom being capitol and recessive being lowercase, the box on the top right will be dominant allele and recessive and bottom dominant and recessive. It’s all based on the allele of that row and column.
