Which trace mineral is important for activating a key enzyme in gluconeogenesis?

1 answer:

5 0

The correct answer is Manganese (Mn).
Manganese functions as a cofactor for a large variety of enzymes with many functions including those active in gluconeogenesis. Pyruvate carboxylase that catalyzes breakdown of pyruvate to oxaloacetate requires manganese (or magnesium) for its function. Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase also needs Mn.

Approximately how many gallons of water are used per year in a typical home? 1 million gallons 500,000 gallons 150,000 gallons 1

Advocard [28]

146 gallons of water

<h2>Further explanation </h2>

The human need for water (for drinking) is 8 glasses a day or about 2 liters. 1 gallon usually contains 19-20 liters. One house usually consists of 4 people (father, mother, brother, sister).

If one person consumes 2 liters of water, then one house will consume about 8 liters a day.

Which will take up 2 gallons in 5 days.

1 Year = 365 days

365 days : 5 days (2 gallons) = 73 (gallon water refill frequency)

73 x 2 = 146

So, within 1 year the level of gallon water consumption in an ordinary house consumes 146 gallons of water.

That is the calculation of the use of gallons for consumption, not for bathing, washing, pooping, urinating, etc.

Please help me How do water particles in a wave move?

Anton [14]

Water waves are an example of waves that involve a combination of both longitudinal and transverse motions. As a wave travels through the waver, the particles travel in clockwise circles. The radius of the circles decreases as the depth into the water increases. The animation at right shows a water wave travelling from left to right in a region where the depth of the water is greater than the wavelength of the waves. I have identified two particles in orange to show that each particle indeed travels in a clockwise circle as the wave passes.

By changing the colour of body: Some animals such as grasshopper changes their colour to survive in places.
By modification of organs: some animals modify their organs to survive such as legs and beak of ducks are modified to survive in swim and search foods.

It helps organism to live a longer life.
