One of the oldest arguments in the history of psychology is the Nature vs Nurture debate. Each of these sides have good points that it's really hard to decide whether a person's development is predisposed in his DNA, or a majority of it is influenced by this life experiences and his environment.
Answer:
1. 39 J; 2. 3.9 % usable; 3. 96.1 % unusable
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Available energy
Energy consumed = 1000 J
Less waste = - 177 J
Less respiration = <u>-784 J
</u>
Total energy lost = <u>-961 J
</u>
Available energy = 39 J
2. Percent of total energy usable
The chipmunk could use only 39 J of the original 1000 J.
% of energy usable = 39 J/1000 J × 100 % = 3.9 %
3. Percent of energy unusable
The chipmunk lost 961 J of the original 1000 J.
% of energy unusable = 961 J/1000 J × 100 % = 96.1 %
Answer: B (GTP serves as the energy input for AMP synthesis from IMP)
Explanation:
In the de novo synthesis of purine nucleotide, IMP represents a branch point for purine biosynthesis. IMP can be converted to either AMP or GMP.
The formation of AMP from IMP requires GTP; similarly formation of GMP requires ATP. The conversion of IMP to either AMP or GMP is highly regulated – AMP and GMP inhibits their own formation by feedback inhibition of adenlyosuccinate synthetase and IMP dehydrogenase.
