The correct answer is the last statement.
If the regulatory serine is mutated to alanine, then acetyl-CoA carboxylase will get activated spontaneously and will produce malonyl-CoA. The increased concentrations of malonyl-CoA will obstruct the oxidation of fatty acids by preventing the entry of fatty acids into the mitochondria.
It is because the AMP-activated protein kinase phosphorylates the serine residues of acetyl-CoA carboxylase to inactivate it. If a mutation occurs in such residues, then the AMPL cannot phosphorylate acetyl-CoA carboxylase and this enzyme will get activated spontaneously.
In such a situation, there will be more than sufficient production of malonyl-CoA, which will inhibit the admittance of more fatty acid getting inside the mitochondria; this will indirectly prevent the oxidation of fatty acids.
Answer:
homologous structures.
Explanation:
If two organisms look very similar during their early stages of development, this is evidence that the organisms. evolved from a common ancestor.
Habitat, community, ecosystem,biome, biosphere
Answer:
B) Styrofoam is a good insulator.
Explanation:
When talking about thermal energy, or a heat, insulator is a material that doesn't allow heat to pass through easily. On the other hand, a conductor is completely the opposite, it allows, quite successfully, transfer of the heat.
So, regarding ice cream, from these definitions above, we can conclude that insulators will prolong melting time, while, in the conductors, ice cream will melt rather fast.
Looking at the table, we see that Styrofoam had the longest melting time, which makes it quite successful insulator.
Carbohydrates, polymers, proteins, and nucleic acids.
These are, well, large organic molecules that are synthesized from multiple identical subunits, as questioned above.
Hope this helps!
