Fossil fuels are hydrocarbons, primarily coal, fuel oil or natural gas, formed from the remains of dead plants and animals.

In common dialogue, the term fossil fuel also includes hydrocarbon-containing natural resources that are not derived from animal or plant sources.

These are sometimes known instead as mineral fuels.

The utilization of fossil fuels has enabled large-scale industrial development and largely supplanted water-driven mills, as well as the combustion of wood or peat for heat.

Fossil fuel is a general term for buried combustible geologic deposits of organic materials, formed from decayed plants and animals that have been converted to crude oil, coal, natural gas, or heavy oils by exposure to heat and pressure in the earth's crust over hundreds of millions of years.

The burning of fossil fuels by humans is the largest source of emissions of carbon dioxide, which is one of the greenhouse gases that allows radiative forcing and contributes to global warming.

A small portion of hydrocarbon-based fuels are biofuels derived from atmospheric carbon dioxide, and thus do not increase the net amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

Regulatory enzymes are often the first enzyme in a multiple-reaction sequence. why might this be the case?
lions [1.4K]

before wasting energy on stopping a response mechanism halfway through, you want to stop the process. feedback restraint at the outset.

Everything in cell metabolism happens extremely sequentially. A process will produce waste if you let it run on its own. First, the regulatory enzyme reduces waste by stopping the entire pathway.

<h3>Which enzymes fall under the regulatory category?</h3>

Kinases are regulatory enzymes that make it easier to transfer phosphate groups to particular substrates. Protein kinases are one of the many types of kinases that play a role in controlling and further modifying cellular activity.

<h3>Which three regulatory enzymes are there?</h3>

Citrate synthase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, and beta-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase are the three enzymes that control the TCA cycle. The irreversible stages of the TCA cycle, which are the primary point of regulation, are catalyzed by these enzymes, which are allosterically regulated.

Why does active transport take place in the small intestine during absorption of food molecules? I thought it was only diffusion
dezoksy [38]
Well if the small intestine needs to absorb the nutrients, then the nutrients kind of have to go somewhere right?
also, there is a transfer from high to low
inside the small intestine there are lots of nutrients that need to be absorbed to be made into energy
the cells would only have to take in more nutrients if it has run out, aka it's low on nutrients
thus the high concentration outside the cell and the low concentration inside leads to the active transport through the cell membrane
