Answer/ explanation :
Reflex response is an involuntary, automatic and rapid response to a stimulus.
It's is controlled by the brain stem.
Reflex actions cannot be controlled. They are coordinated by nerves which moves to and fro in the spinal cord without a direct involvement of the brain.
Examples of a reflex response
Sneezing, coughing, yawning, toughing a hot object, blinking of the eyes.
There are two types of reflex response
Autonomic reflex arc
The somatic reflex arc
The reflex responses happens so quickly because they do not have to be processed by the brain before taking place.
Answer: 25 joules
Explanation:
Recall that kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object.
So, kinetic energy = 1/2 X Mass X Velocity^2
Mass = 0.5kg
Velocity = 10m/s^2
= 1/2 x 0.5kg x 10^2
= 0.5 x 0.5 x 100
= 25 Joules
Thus, the kinetic energy of the moving ball is 25 joules
Answer:
c) Acetyl COA carboxylase; citrate
Explanation:
Citrate serves as an allosteric activator for fatty acid synthesis and diverts the cellular metabolism from the consumption of metabolic fuel to the storage of fuel as fatty acids. When the concentrations of mitochondrial acetyl-CoA and ATP increase, citrate is transported out of mitochondria into the cytosol. In the cytosol, citrate serves as the precursor of cytosolic acetyl-CoA and an allosteric activator of acetyl-CoA carboxylase.
The enzyme Acetyl-CoA carboxylase has three functional regions. Its biotin carboxylase activates CO2 and its transcarboxylase transfers activated CO2 from biotin to acetyl-CoA to produce malonyl-CoA.
