Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase catalyzes the phosphorylation of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, but unlike other glycolyti

zaharov [31]

Answer:

Answer: The correct option is C

Explanation:

The glycolytic pathway involves the oxidation of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate.

Glyceraldehyde 3-Phosphate is oxidized by NAD+ and an inorganic phosphate is incorporated into the product to form an acyl-phosphate, 1,3-bisphosglycerate, which is an energy rich intermediate. NAD+ is reduced by the transfer of an hydride ion to form NADH. Once NADH is formed, its affinity for the enzyme decreases so that the free NAD+ displaces this NADH. The energy released by the oxidation of the substrate is conserved in the terminal phosphoanhydride bond of ATP via the formation of high energy intermediates.

Thus the oxidation/reduction is necessary to produce NADP which is required for ATP synthesis.

A substance that activates plasminogen might be useful to:

ololo11 [35]

Answer: Option A.

Cause clot dissolution to proceed faster.

Explanation:

Plasminogen activator is a substance that activates plasminogen to plasmin. Plasminogen activator is a serine proteases which catalyze the activation of plasminogen. The damaged blood tissue releases tissue plasminogen. The plasmin is important to break fibrin polymers that is formed during clotting of the blood. Increased plasminogen levels cause blood clots to dissolve faster.

BEST ANSWER GETS BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

Cool water at the surface traps nutrients deep in the lake to provide food during the winter.

Explanation:

During winter, ice forms on the surface of the lake when the temperature drops below 4 degrees Celsius. However, the water below remains warm because the ice layer on top also acts as insulation of heat transfer in case of further temperature drops. Further, ice formation retains/seals off nutrients and gases flow below the ice sheet. The amount of nutrients is sufficient for phytoplankton activity during light hours (there is no complete darkness even after thick ice sheet is formed). Resultantly, the photosynthesis produces oxygen and food for aquatic organsism within the lake environment and support their survival during winter season.
