(a)
To determine: The reason for the different products of glycogen breakdown in the tissues of muscles and liver at the time of “fight or flight”.
Introduction:
(b)
To determine: The advantage of specific glycogen breakdown to an animal that must flight or flee.
Introduction:
Metabolic pathway is the series of events that are found in biochemical reaction. These biochemical reactions will help in the conversion of substrate into simpler form. Glycogen break down is necessary for energy demand. Flight and flee is a short stress response. This response will make the body of animal to have a flight.

- The following data were recorded for the enzyme catalyzed conversion of S -> P Question: what would the rate be at 5.0 x 10-5 M [S] and the enzyme concentration was doubled? Also, the rate given in the table is from product accumulation after 10 minuets of reaction time. Verify these rates represent a true initial rate (less than 5% turnover). Please helparrow_forwardThe following data was obtained on isocitrate lyase from an algal species. Identify the reaction catalyzed by this enzyme, deduce the KM and Vmax , and determine the nature of the inhibition by oxaloacetate. Please helparrow_forwardIn the table below, there are sketches of four crystals made of positively-charged cations and negatively-charged anions. Rank these crystals in decreasing order of stability (or equivalently increasing order of energy). That is, select "1" below the most stable (lowest energy) crystal. Select "2" below the next most stable (next lowest energy) crystal, and so forth. A B 鹽 (Choose one) +2 C +2 +2 (Choose one) D 鹽雞 (Choose one) (Choose one)arrow_forward
