2. Consider a well-trained 130-pound female marathon runner, Jordan. Jordan has just loaded up on a carbohydrate meal and has th

e maximum amount of stored glycogen (6.8 grams of glycogen per pound of body weight). (10pts)
a. How many grams of glycogen is Jordan storing in her body? Show your calculations.

b. How many Calories does she have stored as glycogen?

c. If this same number of Calories were stored as fat, how much would it weigh?

d. Given your answers to a. and c., why do you think your body stores most of its extra energy as fat rather than glycogen?

e. Jordan will be competing in a marathon (26.2 miles). Given her above glycogen stores and the rate at which she consumes them running at marathon pace, she only has enough glycogen to last for 24 miles. What must she do in order to be able to run at the same pace beyond this?

Pigmented eyes (P) are dominant to non-pigmented (p), and dimpled chins (D) are dominant to Non-dimpled chins (d). A pigment-eye
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

PpDD and PpDd

Explanation:

Pigmented eyes (P) are dominant to non-pigmented (p), and dimpled chins (D) are dominant to Non-dimpled chins (d).

The <u>possible genotypes of a pigment-eyed, dimple-chinned person</u> would be  PPDD, PpDd, PPDd, PpDD while a blue-eyed person without a dimpled chin would have the genotype ppdd.

The genotype of a blue-eyed, dimpled chin child would be either of ppDd or ppDD, but in this case, the mother is ppdd and as such, the child cannot have two copies of D allele. Hence, the genotype of the child can only be ppDd.

In order for the child to have blue eyes (pp), it means that the father has to have the non-pigmented allele (p). This also means that the father is heterozygous for eye pigmentation (Pp).

<em>Hence, the genotype of the father is now limited to </em><em>PpDD</em> <em>and </em><em>PpDd</em>.

List and describe three factors that affect how quickly enzymes can work to catalyze reactions
Lilit [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is - temperature, pH, substrate concentration.

Explanation:

Various factors affect the rate of enzymatic reaction such as pH, temperature, substrate concentration, availability of activators or inhibitors in the reactions, and enzyme concentration.

Temperature: Temperature affects the rate of the enzyme-catalyzed reactions. Like most of the reactions with an increase in temperature rate of enzymatic reaction also rises up to a maximum level and then declines if the temperature continues to increase as enzyme denatures after a particular temperature.

pH: Similar to the temperature pH also increases the rate of reaction up to a maximum level and then declines the rate as every enzyme acts only at an optimum pH range.

Substrate concentration: If the substrate concentration is increased gradually while the concentration enzyme remains constant, the rate of reaction will increase until it reaches a maximum.
