It is an organic catalyst. It speeds up certain chemical reactions in the body.
Answer:
The correct answer will be option- Glycolysis.
Explanation:
Gluconeogenesis is a metabolic pathway which synthesizes glucose from non-sugar precursors. This pathway is activated in the low concentration of glucose due to less intake or completely absent to conserve energy.
This pathway is somewhat the reverse of the glycolysis when excess energy is present as a result of glycolysis, gluconeogenesis is inhibited and when no energy is present, gluconeogenesis is activated.
Thus, option- glycolysis is the correct answer.
The insulin receptors have specific shape that is compatible to the glucose molecules. The glucose molecules bind to these receptors, which tells the pancreas to release insulin in order to lower the blood glucose level. Any kind of change in the shape of these receptors because of mutation will hinder this cell communication and stop the insulin release. This will lead to high levels of blood sugar level.
500 because of the 10% rule when moving up in food chains, for example; patch of grass-200J rabbit eats some of it but doesn’t eat all - 150J the rabbit runs around for a bit and loses energy, the fox doesn’t eat all of the rabbit - 50J ( just a rough example may not be completely right but the concept of the rule is there and the energy).
