Baboons, sparrows, and human beings are considered both primary and higher order consumers because they all eat plants and meat.
Primary consumers feed on producers/ plants. Then secondary consumers feed on primary consumers.

This is because a primary consumer is an animal that eats plant matter (called a herbivore).

A secondary consumer is an animal that eats those herbivores but it may also consume plant matter.

That is why all 3 are considered both.

Adrenaline stimulates glycogen breakdown in skeletal muscle cells by ultimately activating glycogen phosphorylase, the enzyme th

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

d) A constitutively active mutant form of PKA in skeletal muscle cells would lead to an excess in the amount of glycogen available.

Explanation:

This occurs in the process of Glycogenolysis. The process involves breaking down of glycogen to glucose -1- phosphate and glycogen which helps in the release of glucose into the blood stream to prevent hypoglycemia(low blood sugar). The glucose-1-phosphate is later converted to glucose -6-phosphate. The latter enters the glycolytic pathway in which the reaction is catalysed by the enzyme phosphoglucomutase.

This homeostatic glucose regulation is regulated by the protein kinase(PKA)/ cAMP pathway in the skeletal muscles, the liver and the pancreas.
