Answer:
Thiamine pyrophosphate (derived from vitamin B1) is a coenzyme required for the activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase enzyme complex.
Explanation:
Pyruvate is the end product of glycolysis. During aerobic cellular respiration, pyruvate is oxidatively decarboxylated into acetyl CoA which in turn enters the Kreb's cycle. Oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate is carried out by enzyme complex pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH). The first step is simple decarboxylation and is catalyzed by pyruvate decarboxylase of the PDH complex.
The enzyme pyruvate decarboxylase and has a tightly bound coenzyme, thiamine pyrophosphate. Thiamine pyrophosphate is derived from vitamin B1. Lack of vitamin B1 in the human diet leads to beriberi that is characterized by an increased concentration of pyruvate in blood urine since oxidative decarboxylation cannot occur due to lack of the coenzyme thiamine pyrophosphate.
Answer:
7) the environment is hypotonic because it is less concentrated than the inside of the cell
8.)the mass would decrease because the stuff inside the cell (which is more concentrated in comparison) would diffuse across the cell membrane into the environment in order to maintain equilibrium
9.) Diffusion in order to maintain equilibrium (moving things across a barrier from a more concentrated area to a less concentrated area in order to have an equal concentration on each side) does not require energy. However, moving matter out of the cell in Diagram C would require energy because it involves moving mass from a less concentrated area to a more concentrated area.

Answer/Explanation:
Recall:
Volume of a sphere = ⁴/3πr³
Surface Area = 4πr²
✔️For radius (r) = 1 mm:
Volume = ⁴/3 × π × 1³ = 4.19 mm³
Surface Area = 4 × π × 1² = 12.57 mm²
Ratio of volume to surface area = 4.19 : 12.57 = 1:3
✔️For radius (r) = 3 mm:
Volume = ⁴/3 × π × 3³ = 113.1 mm³
Surface Area = 4 × π × 3² = 113.1 mm²
Ratio of volume to surface area = 113.1 : 113.1 = 1:1
B is the answer?!? Sorry if im wront
Well the niche of a squirrel mostly depends on the niche of a temperate rainforest.The trees need water and sunlight to make a nut.Then the squirrel finds the nut and stores it for the winter
