How do the Km values of glucokinase and hexokinase reflect their roles in sugar metabolism ?

Question: What is the significance of a lab value's half-life? How would you use that information to assess the lab value?

For example, albumin has a half life of 18-21 days, can someone explain the significance of this and how I would use that information to assess the lab value?

Construct a visual aid that integrates the concepts covered in our discussions on Nutrient Assimilation in animals (digestion and absorption of all three macromolecules) Summaries should include at a minimum (but are not limited to these concepts and ideas):

o the three major food macromolecules; make sure you include their monomer and polymer structures.

o How each are enzymatically digested (including the enzymes involved and where the enzymes are active or activated)

o How digested monomers and compounds are absorbed (make sure to specifically describe the transport processes)

o The alimentary structures and/or locations where these processes occur

Describe the way in which DNA is replicated with reference to the following: (a) The formation of a replication bubble with 2 replication forks in opposite directions,the involvement of Okazaki fragments in replication, the synthesis of leading and lagging strand and the direction in which chain elongation occurs.

Please explain the following questions:

- What is the Calvin Cycle and what does it do?

- What is the fluid mosiac model?

Trace pathway for the digestive system for fat. Start at mouth end at heart.

The structure of chromatin at the centromeres is passed on to daughter cells through epigenetic inheritance, meaning without any input from the DNA sequence. Explain how this occurs.  

Please write in complete sentences. List the disease symptoms and virulence factors associated with Pseudomonas infections. Why can Pseudomonas be difficult to .control in a hospital environment?

You are studying a bacterial strain that is an obligate aerobe. The bacteria can do some fermentation and produce lactic acid as an end product, but normally only when starved for oxygen and can’t survive on fermentation alone. Your rival dumps a chemical into your prize culture. This chemical binds to the first protein in the electron transport chain, locking it into a fully reduced and inhibited state permanently. Describe the predicted consequences of this poison on the function of the following proteins or pathways. In each case, in 1-2 sentences describe: How the process normally works. How the process is affected by the poison initially (as the poison first acts) How the process is affected by the poison in the long term. Glycolysis: Krebs cycle: ATP Synthase: ( In the end, can this bacteria survive in the presence of this chemical? Yes or No

A protein with a wild-type allele (P^wt) and protein with a mutant allele (P^m) are one amino acid in the position 12 of the protein chain. The mutant allele's sequence is 5'CTT whereras the wild-type allele's sequence is 5'CAT.

Using an amino acid chart, find :

P^wt in position #12

P^m in position #12
