Answer:

The principle benefit of regulating glycolysis by the concentration of ATP is to signals the cell to stop glycolysis as sufficient amount of ATP is already present in the biological system.

Explanation:

Phosphofructokinase 1 is allosterically inhibited by ATP.Glycolysis is a catabolic as well as exergonic process which deals with the oxidation of glucose to form pyruvate along with ATP molecules.

            When ATP is present at high concentration within our body at that time there is no need to synthesize additional ATP because ATP is already present in sufficient amount.

       To maintain its own homeostasis ATP allosterically inhibit the catalytic activity of phosphofructokinase. As a result glycolysis is inhibited and the glucose molecule can be utilized in other metabolic pathways.

A color-blind (X-linked recessive) human with Klinefelter syndrome has parents both of whom have normal color vision. 4a. From w
sineoko [7]

The extra X chromosome is received from mother.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

Klinefelter's syndrome is the condition of chromosomal aberration where the person has an extra X chromosome. This means the genotype of the person is 44+XXY and the total chromosome number is 47. This condition is achieved due to inappropriate meiotic division and one of the sperm or ovum has the an extra X chromosome.

Here both the parents are normal in terms of colour vision. So the father cannot have the gene of colour blindness because if it was present, then father would have been colour blind because he has only one X chromosome per cell. So its present in mother who is heterozygous in terms of colour blind gene. So the extra X chromosome also came from her which made the presence of two defective X chromosomes in the offspring and made it colour blind.
