The answer to this question would be: <span>by converting glucose to glycogen. 

Brain cells only able to use energy from glucose, so if the body glucose level is too low the brain cells can't work as it doesn't get any energy/food. When glucose level is decreased, the liver will start to convert glycogen into glucose to keep the glucose level.</span>

What is the key difference among the 20 amino acids that are used to make proteins?
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Attached R side groups

Explanation:

The proteins are one of the important biomolecules which are directly coded by the genetic material of an organism.

The proteins are composed of the amino acids which possess, an amine group, a carboxylic group and an attached side group called the R group.

It is the R group of an amino acid which determines whether the amino acid will a polar or a non-polar amino acid molecule thus it determines the properties of the amino acid in terms of chemical properties. The R side group are involved in the formation of bonds with the substrate of the environment and the tertiary structure of the proteins.

Thus, the presence of different R group is the key difference in 20 amino acids.

In Drosophila, vestigial (partially formed) wings (vg) are recessive to normal long wings (vg+) and the gene for this trait is a
Marina CMI [18]

Answer/ Explanation:

a. The genotype of a homozygous white eyed long winged female would be Vg+Vg+XrXr. We denote the white allele as recessive (r) because the XY male only has one copy and yet has red eyes, so the red eye trait (R) must be dominant. A homozygous red eyed vestigial winged male would have be VgVgXRY. The possible gametes for the female are Vg+Xr only. For the male, the possible gametes are VgXR or VgY

The attached punnett square shows the results of the cross. The females will all be Vg+VgXRXr. The males will all be Vg+VgXRY (must inherit Y from father). That means they will all  have normal length wings, the males will have white eyes and the females will have red eyes.

b. The F2 flies arise from intercrossing the F1, so the cross will be Vg+VgXRXr x Vg+VgXRY. The possible gametes for the mother are: Vg+XR, Vg+Xr, VgXR or VgXr. The possible gametes for the father are Vg+Xr

, Vg+Y

, VgXr

, VgY

. The attached punnet square shows this cross. The ratio of the phenotypes will be 6:6:2:2, or 3:3:1:1 (long-winged red eye: long-winged white eye: vestigial wing red eye: vestigial wing white eye), genotypes shown in the attachment.

c. F1 cross back to the mother would be Vg+VgXRY x Vg+Vg+XrXr. The genotypes are shown in the attached punnet square. The offspring will all be long-winged with white eyes. The F1 to the father would be Vg+VgXRXr x VgVgXRY. The ratio would be 3:3:1:1 long-winged red eye: long-winged white eye: vestigial wing red eye: vestigial wing white eye
