Answer: Plants do both photosynthesis and cellular respiration.
Explanation:
All cells do cellular respiration even without light.
Honestly, photosynthesis alone would be right since the teacher didnt state the questions correctly. But you should choose both cause in the light it does both.
Answer:
The correct answer is the formation of pyruvate from glucose willl be energetically less favorable.
Explanation:
According to the question matunt yeast has a shorter glycolytic pathay catalysing a follwing reaction
Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate+H2O+NAD+ = 3-phosphoglycerate
So in the mutatant the formation of 1,3- bisphosphoglycerate is not occurring.The glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate is directly converted into 3-phosphoglycerate.
As a result the substrate level phosphorylation step that deals with formation of 3-phosphoglycerate from 1,3 bisphosphoglycerate is not occurring.
From this point of view it can be said that less energy will be formed in the mutant during glycolysis than that of normal one.
So the formation of pyruvate from glucose will be energetically less favorable.
