Do predators really kill only the old and sick prey?

Biology

No, many predators kill young and healthy prey, as well as old and sick. It really just depends on the type of predator and the situation. A pack of wolves may prey on an old elk because they are small and that is easier for them to kill, while a lion may prey on a young gazelle.

Answer:

The correct answer would be His mitochondria lack the transport protein that moves pyruvate across the outer mitochondrial membrane.

In cellular respiration, glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm of the cell and converts glucose into 2 molecules of pyruvate. Pyruvate is then transported into the mitochondria for further oxidation.

It is transported into the mitochondria with the help of transport protein pyruvate translocase where it is decorboxylated to produce acetyl-CoA. This acetyl-CoA then enters the Krebs cycle to produce ATP (adenosine triphosphate) with the help of oxidative phosphorylation, electron transport chain and chemiosmosis.

In absence of this transport protein, the cell can not completely oxidize the glucose or carbohydrate. It switches to the metabolism of fats and amino acids in order to meet the energy demands of the cell.
