Why is respiration slower on glutamate than on succinate?A. electron transport from glutamate stores more energy per oxygen atom than electron transport from succinateB. electron transport from glutamate stores less energy per oxygen atom than electron transport from succinateC. the ADP:O ratio for glutamate supported respiration is 2D. the RCR […]

Question 1 Lyme Disease Lyme disease is caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi and is transmitted to humans through the bite of infected blacklegged ticks. I took my General Biology class on a field trip at the end of the spring semester in late April to Cattus Island County Park […]

Q1. Oxaloacetate uniformly labelled with 14C (such as with equal amounts of 14C in each of its carbon atoms) is condensed with unlabeled acetyl-CoA. After a single pass through the citric acid cycle back to oxaloacetate, what fraction of the unique radioactivity will be found in the oxaloacetate? Q2. Based […]

General Biology Compare and contrast a “character” versus a “variant (or trait)”. A pea plant with a Tt genotype is crossed to a plant with a tt genotype. What percentage of the offspring do you expect will be dwarf?  What is a transgenic organism? Give one example. What is a stem cell? Give two […]
