Coral reefs are part of the marine and oceanic ecosystem that are hard and made up of calcium carbonate. Planulae is not the major structure of coral reefs.

<h3>What are coral reefs and Planulae?</h3>

Coral reefs are the hard calcium structures that are of three major types barrier, fringing and atoll.  They feed on the planktons and algae that are the small structures inhabiting them.

Planulae is a freely swimming larvae of the jellyfish and other species of Ctenophores. They are solid, flat and have cilia over their body.

Therefore, option a. Planulae is not a structure or type of coral reef.

How are radioactive isotopes used to date rocks? ...?
Stolb23 [73]
Some isotopes, however, decay slowly, and several of these are used as geologic clocks. Dating rocks by these radioactive timekeepers is simple in theory, but the laboratory procedures are complex. <span>All methods rely on the fact that certain elements (particularly uranium and potassium) contain a number of different isotopes whose half-life is exactly known and therefore the relative concentrations of these isotopes within a rock or mineral can measure the age.</span>

How many atp equivalents are consumed in the conversion of each of the following to a glucosyl residue in glycogen?
Nina [5.8K]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Dihydroxyacetone phosphate - 1

Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate - 1

Pyruvate - 13

G-6-P - 1

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

1) Dihydroxyacetone phosphate = 1

G1P + GTP --> UDPG + PPi two P is equivalent to 2 ATP --->2 ADP + Pi) Therefore, two ATP equivalents - but UDP is the product and only one P needed

2 DHAP --> F1,6-BP -->F6P --> G6P -->G1P -->UDPG --> glucosyl residue

2) Fructose 1,6-bisphosphate = 1

3) Pyruvate = 13

2 pyr + 2 ATP --> 2 OAA

2 OAA + 2 GTP --> 2 PEP

2 PEP --> 2 2PG --> 2 3PG

2 3PG + 2 ATP --> 2 1,3 BPG

2 1,3 BPG + 2 NADH --> 2 G3P

2 NADH = 6 ATP

2 G3P --> DHP + G3P --> FDP -- > F6P + P

F6P --> G6P --> G1P

G1P + UTP --> UDPG + PP

4) Glucose-6-phosphate = 1

G6P -->G1P G1P + UTP --> UDP-GLC + 2 Pi

UDP-Glc + glycogen --> glycogen+ 1 Glc
