Jobisdone [24]
You could argue with the fact that a common worker was allowed their own burial tomb. Back in ancient Egypt few were rich enough to have a Tomb built. Also the tomb seams to be a graveyard, which implies that this is a place specifically designated for the dead, which were usually not tombs but in places closer to town.

The metabolic fate of fatty acids is dependent on two enzymes, carnitine acyltransferase i and acetyl-coa carboxylase. carnitine
zvonat [6]

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.

What do complement proteins do?
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer: <u>B. They signal phagocytes </u>

Explanation: Complement proteins are a part of immune system of the body. These are plasma proteins which help in the process of marking and killing the pathogens. These are not involved in the fever causing mechanism, so option D is incorrect. Also, these are not carrier proteins, and are not associated with hormones, thus option C is also incorrect. Since these proteins bind with the pathogens and make them easily recognized by the phagocytes, option B is the right answer.
