Answer:

a) Scales of pine closes and opens up with the variation in moisture content of air.

b) Cold sunglass meets warm moisture laden air and hence water droplet are suspended on the surface of sunglass.

Explanation:

a) Being a natural hygrometer, pine cone through its physiological activities indicate the presence of humidity in air.

The ridges of the pine consists of scales and the seed is inside it. In a humid environment, the scales absorbs moisture and swell and close the cone. This also prevents the seed from rotting due to excess moisture. With the reduction in moisture content of air, moisture in the  scales of pine cone evaporates and the cone open up.

b) Sunglass gets cold since it is inside the airconditioned temperature of car. When the sunglass is placed outside the car window, moisture laden hot wind strikes the cold sunglass and it suspends its moisture there on the surface of glass as water droplets.

What other cofactors or cosubstrates does the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex require to function?
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

Pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) is a very high molecular weight mitochondrial multienzyme complex.It includes three types of enzymes that need the participation of five coenzymes to develop their activity, three of them catalytic cofactors (TPP, lipoamide, FAD) and two stoichiometric (NAD and CoA). Two enzymes involved in regulating its activity are also part of the enzyme complex.

Explanation:

PDH is a multienzyme complex formed by multiple copies of three catalytic proteins (E1, E2 and E3) and other structural and regulatory (phosphatase, kinase). It requires, in turn, different coenzymes (thiamine, lipoic acid) for its proper functioning. Given its enormous importance at a key point in energy production, it is highly regulated. E1 depends on thiamine pyrophosphate and catalyzes 2 stages: 1) decarboxylation of pyruvate, forming a hydroxyethyl-thiamine-diphosphate intermediate; 2) reductive acetylation of the lipoyl group, covalently linked (amide) to E2. E2 catalyzes the transfer of the acetyl group to CoA (3). E3 regenerates the oxidized lipoyl, transferring its electrons first to FAD and then to NAD.

Vlad [161]

Answer:

first question:The nucleus is particularly important among eukaryotic organelles because it is the location of a cell's DNA. Two other critical organelles are mitochondria and chloroplasts, which play important roles in energy conversion and are thought to have their evolutionary origins as simple single-celled organisms

:second question: The DNA in prokaryotes is contained in a central area of the cell called the nucleoid, which is not surrounded by a nuclear membrane.

JongHyun is able to play "Go Fish," a card game that requires quick thinking. What brain change most directly supports his abili
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Myelination.

Explanation:

Brain acts as one of the most important organ of the body that helps in receiving the stimuli and interpret the information in the form of signal. Two main types of neuron are myelinated neuron and unmyelinated neuron.

The myelinated neuron increases the conductivity of the impulse. The myelinated neurons are much more active than the unmyelinated neuron. In case of the quick thinking and instant actions, the myelinated neurons play an important role.

Thus, the answer is myelination.
