Chapter 27, Problem 2CT
Summary Introduction

To explain: Whether Person O finds the carved initials higher relative to ground level after ten years.

Concept introduction: The young plant grows primarily by lengthening, and older plant grows by lengthening and thickening. The primary growth originates at the terminal bud, which consists of the apical meristem. The cell division that occurs in the apical meristem pushes the dividing cells toward the base of the shoot, and they will differentiate. The lateral meristem runs length wise through the stems and roots, and they give rise to woody secondary growth.

The metabolic pathway below is used for the production of the purine nucleotides adenosine monophosphate (AMP) and guanosine monophosphate (GMP) in eukaryotic cells. Assume each arrow represents a reaction catalyzed by a different enzyme. Using the principles of feedback inhibition, propose a regulatory scheme for this pathway that ensures an adequate supply of both AMP and GMP, and prevents the buildup of Intermediates A through G when supplies of both AMP and GMP are adequate.
