Answer:
Thiamine pyrophosphate (derived from vitamin B1) is a coenzyme required for the activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase enzyme complex.
Explanation:
Pyruvate is the end product of glycolysis. During aerobic cellular respiration, pyruvate is oxidatively decarboxylated into acetyl CoA which in turn enters the Kreb's cycle. Oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate is carried out by enzyme complex pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH). The first step is simple decarboxylation and is catalyzed by pyruvate decarboxylase of the PDH complex.
The enzyme pyruvate decarboxylase and has a tightly bound coenzyme, thiamine pyrophosphate. Thiamine pyrophosphate is derived from vitamin B1. Lack of vitamin B1 in the human diet leads to beriberi that is characterized by an increased concentration of pyruvate in blood urine since oxidative decarboxylation cannot occur due to lack of the coenzyme thiamine pyrophosphate.

Answer:
6 thymine, 4 guanine. 4 cytosine
Explanation:
Adenine pairs with thymine, so you need 6 of each
Cytosine matches with guanine, but the total of nucleotides is 20, so
6(adenine)+6(thymine)=12
20-12=8
8= 4(guanine)+4(cytosine)
Answer:
The correct answer is - 0.084
Explanation:
Sickle cell anemia is a autsmal recessive blood disorder of RBCs where RBC shape altered to the sickle shape or cresecent moon that obstruct and damage the veins and artries.
Normal allele is represented by - HbA - p
sickel cell allele is represented by - HbS - q
genotype frequency of normal allele HbA in the population = p2
genptype frequency of HbAHbS in the population = 2pq
genotype frequency of autosomal recessive HbS = q2 = 0.007 (given)
So, the allelic frequency of the recessive allele =
q = √ 0.007 = 0.08366 or 0.084
