Answer:
A
Explanation:
A. The optimum pH of the enzyme is 6.6. - this is true. The optimum pH of the enzyme is where its activity is the highest. On the graph, this is pH 6.6 (activity at 100)
B. The optimum pH of the enzyme is 5.8. - this is false, the activity of the enzyme peaks at 6.6 (100), at 5.8 the activity is 80
C. The enzyme's activity is greater around pH 8.0 than around pH 5.0 - This is false, the activity at pH 5 is 50, whereas at around 8 it is 20.
D
. The enzyme's activity continually increases as pH increases from 5.0 to 9.0 - this is false. The activity drops between pH 6.6 and pH 9.
In most cases, the two major climatic factors affecting the distribution of organisms in terrestrial ecosystems are the amount of water and temperatures. Terrestrial ecosystems rely on the sun's energy to support the growth and metabolism of the organisms. Plants use the sunlight, then they supply the organisms that are higher up the food chain with energy and the structural buildings blocks of life. Water is also essential for the survival of these organisms.
Answer:
This question lacks options, options are:
A) ATP
B) NADP
C) Pryuvate
D) glucose
E) acetyl-CoA.
The correct answer is C) Pyruvate.
Explanation:
Pyruvate is a very important compound for the cell since it is a key substrate for energy production and glucose synthesis (neo-glycogenesis), that is, pyruvate is the end product of glucose breakdown in glycolysis. Before entering the mitochondria, it can be converted to lactate, through an anaerobic reaction (in the absence or under oxygen supply) of low performance in energy production, when the main pathway is interfered with. It can also be converted to the amino acid alanine. Within the mitochondria, it can be transformed, by pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH), into acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA), the entry point (substrate) of the Krebs cycle. In addition, by means of pyruvate carboxylase, it can be transformed into oxalacetate, which constitutes the first step in neoglycogenesis.
Answer : The correct answer for the blank is -
a. zygote.
A zygote can be described as a diploid cell that is produced by the fusion of gametes (from each parent such as egg and sperm). The process of fusion is called fertilization and zygote is also called fertilized ovum/egg.
Zygote undergoes multiple rounds of proliferation (cell division through mitosis) and ultimately differentiates to produce the highly advanced stage, fetus (which is fully developed baby).
Thus, a zygote is formed when sperm meets egg and contains all DNA necessary to create a person.
