Answer: The correct answer is- C) Protists.

Dysentery is an inflammatory disease of the intestine, especially of the colon region ( a part of large intestine) that causes extensive pain in the abdomen and severe diarrhea. Apart from this, it also includes symptoms such as fever and an incomplete defecation feeling.

Amoebic dysentery is also known as amoebiasis and caused by <em>Entamoeba histolytica, </em>which is a protist.

2. In gluconeogenesis, it takes two enzymes to convert pyruvate to phosphoenolpyruvate. a. Explain what is happening chemically
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:1. Pyruvate carboxylase

2. Phosphoenol pyruvate carboxy kinase

Explanation:

The conversion of pyruvate to phosphoenol pyruvate is catalyzed by two enzymes Pyruvate carboxylase and phosphoenol pyruvate carboxy kinase

1. Pyruvate carboxylase reaction

Pyruvate in the cytoplasm enters the mitochondria. Then, carboxylase of pyruvate to oxaloacetate is catalysed by a mitochondrial enzyme, pyruvate carboxylase. It needs the co-enzymes biotin and ATP.

The oxaloacetate formed has to be transported from the mitochondrial to the cytosol because further reaction of gluconeogenesis are taking place in cytosol.

2. Phoaphoenol pyruvate carboxy kinase (PEPCK)

In the cytoplasm, PEPCK enzyme then converts oxaloacetate to phoaphoenol pyruvate by removing a molecule of CO2. GTP or ITP donates the phosphate group.

The net effect of these two reactions is the conversion of pyruvate to phoaphoenol pyruvate. This circumverts the irreversible step in glycolysis catalyzed by pyruvate kinase (step 9 if glycolysis)

leva [86]

Answer:

The alpha helices in the beta subunit are a ring shaped protein.

Explanation:

<em>Because the beta encircles DNA like a ring used gel filtration and radioactive beta subunit. Tipically beta and gamma complex are needed for fast and processive synthesis by polymerase III core. Some researchers  realized that adding polymerase III  core to the gel filtered isolated ³H-beta- DNA provide fast DNA synthesis typical of the polymerase III holoenzyme. Therefore the gamma complex is only needed to get the beta subunit onto the DNA, and is not required afterward.</em>
