The enzyme choline acetyltransferase catalyzes the reaction between acetyl-CoA and choline resulting in the formation of the neu
Nady [450]

Answer: Anterograde direction.

Explanation:

Choline acetyltransferase is an enzyme made in the body of a neuron and that needs to be transferred to the axon terminal to perform its function. Its function is to bind acetyl-CoA to choline to form the neurotransmitter acetylcholine.

The movement toward the cell body is called retrograde transport and the movement toward the synapse is called anterograde transport. So, since it is produced in the body of the cell and it has to go to the axon terminals, the choline acetyltransferase is transported in the anterograde direction.  

This type of transport is responsible for the movement of organelles such as mitochondria, lipids, synaptic vesicles, proteins from a neuron cell body through the cytoplasm of its axon called the axoplasm. <u>Because axons can sometimes be meters long, neurons cannot rely on diffusion to carry products to the end of their axons</u>. Dynein is a motor protein involved in this retrograde axonal transport. Its light chains bind cargo, and its globular head regions bind the microtubule, "moving forward" along it.

Which statements explain the relationship belween photosynthesis and cellular respiration? Check all that apply
Sedaia [141]

Answer: The third and fifth statements are true. Oxygen released from photosynthesis is breathed in by animals to break down glucose, and the carbon dioxide released by animals is used to build glucose in photosynthesis.

Explanation: Oxygen and glucose are the reactants for cellular respiration in animals. Oxygen is breathed in through the air, which is produced by plants. When the process of cellular respiration is complete, animals breathe out carbon dioxide as a product, which plants need to perform photosynthesis. Plants perform photosynthesis and send oxygen into the environment. The reactants of photosynthesis are the products of cellular respiration in animals, and vice versa, but the reactants and products are not the same.
