Question

#10 True or false and why

8. occurs when the product of a metabolic pathway activity. 9. Addition of phosphate groups to a particular molecule is catalyzed by True/False (3 pts each) ndicate whether the statement is true or false. f true, explain why it is true and/or give examples to support it. if false, plain why it is false 0. The presence of elevated ATP in the cell stimulates synthesis of proteins and glycogen. The pH optima for all digestive enzymes are approximately equal to the pH of blood.

Explanation / Answer

True

When sufficient amount of ATP are available in the cell the process of glycolysis, glycogenolysis, and the citric acid cycle would be inhibited. The conversion of excess of glucose present in the cell to glycogen with expenditure of ATP would be initiated by insulin.

Hence the production of glycogen and the enzymatic proteins required to regulate these mechanisms are stimulated.
