- true or false 1. Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase is the enzyme involved in the carbon dioxide fixation in the mesophyll cells of C4 plants 2. The C4 pathway utilizes less ATP than C3 pathway thus enabling C4 plants to adapt to tropical temperatures. 3. Photorespiration occurs when [O2]/[CO2] is high. 4. The carboxylase activity of RuBisCO catalyzes the fixation of carbon dioxide. 5. In cyclic photophosphorylation, only ATP is produced. 6. Chlorophyll has iron as the metal center of the porphyrin ring.arrow_forward. Glucagon secretion causes inhibition of intracellular acetyl-CoA car- boxylase activity by several mechanisms.

The patient was put on a thiamine-enriched diet but not all of their symptoms were alleviated. Through genetic testing, it was found that there was also a small defect in pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase that decreases its normal activity. 1. Explain why this genetic defect can cause beriberi symptoms (i.e. high pyruvate levels after a high-carb meal). 2. Why did thiamine supplementation not alleviate the symptoms for this patient?arrow_forward
