Carbon-12 has the following electron configuration: 1s2-2s2-2p2. As seen in the configuration, the right answer is: the first electron shell has 4 orbitals.
Answer:
e. UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase catalyzes the reaction of glucose-I-phosphate and UTP to UDP-glucose and PPi
a. Pyrophosphatase converts PPi and water into two Pi
b. Glycogen synthase adds a glucose unit from UDP-glucose to glycogen, producing a larger glycogen molecule and UDP
Explanation:
Glycogen synthesis or glycogenesis is the process of synthesis of glycogen molecules from glucose molecules in living organisms. Glycogen is a polysaccharide storage form of glucose and helps to store excess glucose in the body form use when required by the body.
The synthesis of glycogen involves sugar nucleotides. Sugar nucleotides are compounds in which a sugar molecule is attached to a nucleotide through phosphate ester bond, resulting in the activation of the sugar molecule. The sugar nucleotides then are used as substrates for the polymerization of the monosaccharide sugars into disaccharides, oligosaccharides and polysaccharides.
In the synthesis of glycogen, glucose-6-phosphate from phosphorylation of free glucose by hexokinase is first isomerized to glucose-1-phosphate by phosphoglucomutase.
Glucose-1-phosphate is then converted to UDP-glucose by its reaction with UTP catalyse by UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase. The reaction is favoured by the rapid hydrolysis of PPi produced to two molecules of inorganic phosphate by the enzyme pyrophosphatase.
Glycogen synthase then adds a glucose unit from UDP-glucose to a growing chain of glycogen, producing a larger glycogen molecule and free UDP.

As the Bronsted definition sais, an acid is a substance with the ability to give protons thus, H2PO4 is the acid and HPO42- is the conjugate base.
The Ka expression is the ratio between the concentration of products and reactants of the equilibrium reaction so,
![Ka = \frac{[HPO_{4}^{-2}] [H_{3}O^{+}]}{[H_{2}PO_{4}^{-}] [H_{2}O]} = 6.2x10^{-8}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Ka%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B%5BHPO_%7B4%7D%5E%7B-2%7D%5D%20%5BH_%7B3%7DO%5E%7B%2B%7D%5D%7D%7B%5BH_%7B2%7DPO_%7B4%7D%5E%7B-%7D%5D%20%5BH_%7B2%7DO%5D%7D%20%3D%206.2x10%5E%7B-8%7D)
The pKa is

The pKa of H2CO3 is 6,35, thus this a stronger acid than H2PO4. The higher the pKa of an acid greater the capacity to donate protons.
In the body H2CO3 is a more optimal buffer for regulating pH due to the combination of the two acid-base equilibriums and the two pKa.
If the urine is acidified, according to Le Chatlier's Principle the equilibrium (1) moves to the left neutralizing the excess proton concentration.
