Acceleration, in physics, is the rate of change of velocity of an object. An object's acceleration is the net result of any and all forces acting on the object, as described by Newton's Second Law.
Answer:
The overall strategy employed in the catabolism of the carbon skeletons of the 20 amino acids is conversion to citric acid intermediates such as acetyl-CoA
Explanation:
The breakdown of the different carbon skeletons of the 20 amino acids is strategically channelled towards the citric acid cycle. Six major products are obtained in the catabolism of the carbon chain of amino acids and these products all enter the citrc acid cycle. The six major products are acetyl-CoA, α-ketoglutarate, succinyl-CoA, fumarate, oxaloacetate and pyruvate.
The amino acids that are broken down completely into acetoacetyl-CoA and/or acetyl-CoA are said to be ketogenic since they yield ketone bodies in the liver.
The amino acids that are broken down into α-ketoglutarate, succinyl-CoA, fumarate, oxaloacetate and pyruvate can be converted to glucose and glycogen and are said to be glucogenic. Pyruvate can further be converted to either acetyl-CoA or oxaloacetate. Some amino acids though are both ketogenic and glucogenic, e.g. tryptophan, threonine.
Answer:
fire
landslide
avalanche
Explanation:
Fire, landslides, and avalanches are the examples of rapid environmental changes because they are able to destroy or affect the structure of living organism in a particular area. For example, fires can destroy all forms of life within days. A recent event of wildfire in Austria killed more than 1 billion of animals. Similarly, landslides and avalanche are geological calamities that are caused by the movement of a large mass of rock debris or snow moving downhill. The living organisms living there would be killed and this process can diminsh many forms of life (multicellular eukaryotes) rapidly.
On the other hand, (ecological) succession is a very slow process that results into change or disappearance of living organisms or particular species or ecological community in an area. This process can take place over decadaes, thousands or million of years. It can also lead to the species extinction as well.
the highest level which is the 'apex preditor' or in other cases its called a 'tertiary consumer'
