Answer:
The correct answer will be option-D.
Explanation:
Before Citric acid cycle or Krebs cycle, an intermediate reaction takes place which converts the pyruvate into Acetyl CoA. This reaction is known as pyruvate decarboxylation as it produces Carbon dioxide.
Coenzyme A reacts with pyruvate which causes the release of two oxygen atoms and one carbon to form CO₂ along with the reduction of NAD+ to NADH and produce "Acetyl CoA."
Thus, option-D is the correct answer.
The correct answer is (b.) infiltration. Rainfall is to precipitation as groundwater is to infiltration. Precipitation is the release of the water from the cloud (evaporated water) in the form of rain and snow. Infiltration is a process in which the water from the ground enters the soil.
Answer:
Azidothymidine
Explanation:
Azidothymidine (AZT) is one of the nucleoside analogs that is used in the treatment of AIDS as it inhibits the process of reverse transcription of HIV (Human immunodeficiency virus).
The HIV replicates by making DNA copies of RNA through the process of reverse transcription. The process is driven by enzyme reverse transcriptase. Azidothymidine (AZT) serves to inhibit the activity of reverse transcriptase enzyme and thereby does not allow HIV to reproduce.
