Foraging Behavior - The Search for Food

Optimizing its foraging behavior

1. When the difference between the energetic benefits of food consumption  and the energetic costs of food gathering is maximized.

2. Animals with optimal foraging strategies will have more available energy with which to survive and reproduce.

Gluconeogenesis occurs in all animals, plants, fungi, and microorganisms. The reactions are essentially the same in all tissues and all species.

The important precursors of glucose in animals are three-carbon compounds such as lactate, pyruvate, and glycerol, as well as certain amino acids

The phosphorylation state of T14 and Y15 is controlled by a dual-specificity protein kinase known as Wee1 and a pair of dual-specificity phosphatases, Cdc25B and Cdc25C (Threonine 14 is not phosphorylated in S. pombe CDK1)
